Muscle tension, illness and stress are all common problems at the holidays. The hustle and bustle of visiting family and friends, traveling to holiday events and spending money on gifts can take its toll on your body and mind. Chiropractic care can help you manage the physical and emotional stresses of this joyful but hectic time of year. From spinal adjustment to nutrition counseling, chiropractic care can help you stay healthy, avoid illness and feel your best.
BENEFITS OF CHIROPRACTIC CARE AT THE HOLIDAYS
There are many benefits of chiropractic care at the holidays!
- Make holiday travel easier. Holiday travel can make your muscles feel painful and weak. Sitting for a long time in a plane or car can make your back ache or your neck stiff. Your chiropractor can help you avoid these problems, which can make holiday travel more fun and pleasant.
- Get the right kind of nutrition. Many people overindulge in sugar and fatty foods at the holidays. Your chiropractor can give you strategies for ensuring that you eat the right kind of foods and get the right amount of nutrition, while still enjoying the traditional holiday meals you love.
- Avoid muscle tension. The more stress you feel, the more tension you’ll feel in your muscles. This can lead to pain in the back, shoulders and neck. Muscle tension can also lead to headaches that can make it difficult to enjoy your holidays. Chiropractors use all natural, non-invasive techniques to help their patients reduce muscle tension.
- Reduce stress. Visiting the chiropractor can help you feel better physically, which can help reduce stress and make your holidays go more smoothly.
- Boost immunity. The holiday season coincides with cold and flu season, but nothing helps boost your immunity like a trip to the chiropractor. By improving the functioning of your central nervous system, your chiropractor can help you fight off colds and the flu.
CHIROPRACTIC METHODS THAT HELP
Chiropractors use many methods to treat their patients. At Greater Cincinnati Chiropractic, some of the most helpful strategies for staying healthy at the holidays include:
- Stretches and exercises. Whether you’re lifting holiday gifts or sitting for long periods of time in a car, stretches and exercises can help the muscles in your body stay loose and flexible, which enables you to avoid aches and pains.
- Stress management and lifestyle advice. A lot of people develop bad habits around the holidays. Lack of sleep, lack of exercise and consumption of sugary foods can all contribute to poor health. That’s why we help our patients manage stress and make smart decisions around the holidays, to improve their overall health and quality of life.
- Spinal adjustment. Spinal adjustment is a technique that we use to restore balance to the vertebrae of the spine and realign the joints in the back. Spinal adjustment helps you manage your pain, eliminates subluxations and improves communication between the brain and the rest of the body.
