How An Aspen Chiropractic Office Is Helping Those With Emotional Stress

By Derick Scartel


Chiropractic wellness care is a preventative measure against spine and nerve disorders. The focus in the healthy individual is to maintain that excellent state of health. The busy adult may allow emotional stress to tighten the muscles and allow anxiety to set in. An Aspen CO Wellness Chiropractor has care methods that can improve this condition.

The environment can sometimes cause stress. Included are worry over performance at work or excessively loud music. Physical stress comes from disease or an accident. Other physical stressors are insomnia and bad eating habits.

Emotional stress is harder to understand. It includes things such as a reaction to outside influences. Various methods to alleviate it can affect different people in different ways. Some people try meditation, yoga or deep breathing exercises.

One response to stress is the fight or flight response. The hormones the adrenal glands secrete can harm the body if they build up without an outlet. In earlier times this response may have saved your life by warning you of danger. It is not of much use now. It is seldom necessary for someone to run from a wild predator that wants to eat him or her.

The chronic stress causes tension and contraction of the muscles. This, in turn, exerts pressure against the skeletal system. The spinal column can be subluxated, the chiropractic term for a misalignment. Chiropractic care for that condition is a series of adjustments that move the spinal bones back into place.

The person who has regular check ups with a chiropractor would avoid a subluxation being undetected. When it is ignored, further damage can result. A herniated disc is often caused by such a misalignment. This can be avoided with regular check ups.

No care can be offered until an assessment is completed. Range of motions tests and measurements of strength are done. The spine is palpated. A record is kept of the findings. A medical record is started. After the evaluation is completed, the client begins a series of spinal adjustments to readjust the vertebrae.
