if you are like most Americans attempting to get back on track this year with weight loss, new routines, healthier eating etc, you may want to consider a chiropractic adjustment’s role in weight loss.
Ultimately weight loss (or weight gain for that matter) is a product of proper hormone balance. After that all your hard work comes into play. SO let’s talk about hormones. In very simple terms your nervous system tells your hormones what to do, your hormones go about doing the work and then reports back to your brain. When you have nervous system interference (subluxation) your hormones can be off kilter. Most people have heard of the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system. In our stressed out society today most people are living in a state of sympathetic dominance (meaning the parasympathetic nervous system is suppressed).
Chiropractic adjustments (particularly to the upper cervical spine) positively influence the production, release and balance of hormones. They allow your parasympathetic nervous system to normalize and balance the sympathetic nervous system which promotes healing and immunity.
In essence if you are subluxated you can work your butt off in the gym, watch your diet meticulously and still not get the results you’re hoping for because your hormones may still be out of balance.
