After you get sick you wonder how it happened. Did you catch a cold at work or get too close to that sniffling baby? Maybe you forgot to wash your hands after greeting a new colleague or travelling on public transport.
But have you ever stopped to think that maybe it wasn’t JUST germs that played a part in getting you sick?
It is easier to avoid a crisis of illness by staying well rather than trying to get well.
There is a connection between our immune and nervous systems.
Having a healthy immune system isn’t the only requirement when it comes to fending off germs before they manifest in our bodies as an illness.
If your body was an orchestra, your nervous system would be the conductor, guiding the performance and bringing harmony to many interactive parts. In the same way, your nervous system influences your immune system. When your nervous system isn’t balanced, neither will it or your immune system be functioning as it should, leaving you more susceptible to illness.
In today’s world it is impossible to stay away from all germs. Instead switch your focus to maintaining a nervous system free of disturbances through chiropractic care. Work with your immune system to fight off germs before they have you feeling under the weather.
Chiropractic care restores function to your body and improves its ability to heal itself just as it was designed to. With proper rest, food, exercise and adjustments, you can do just that.
