Stress
When we are under stress our body can present with:
Slouched, rounded posture
Clenching the jaw or grinding teeth
Headaches and neck pain
Poor sleep
Digestive issues
Hormonal imbalances
Fatigue and exhaustion
Aching joints
Nervousness and anxiety
Tight muscles
There are many different reasons for stress to occur, from physical trauma to emotional and chemical stress triggers.
Physiologically when stressed we activate the sympathetic nervous system, the fight or flight response. In this response there is also a decrease in the parasympathetic nervous system, which is known for resting, digesting, relaxing and repairing. Prolonged time spent in a fight or flight response can have a range of negative impacts on the body both short and long term.
Chiropractic care can help to relieve neurological stress in the spine, assisting in restoring a balance between the parasympathetic and sympathetic system. This will allow your body to appropriately respond to both external and internal stresses with greater ease. Your chiropractor can also help identify the physical, chemical and emotional causes of a stress response to prevent it from happening again.
