Chiropractic care has become a popular discipline of alternative medicine because of the ability to diagnose and resolve many different aspects of our overall health. When we go to the chiropractor, our frame of reference usually tells us that we are going solely to treat musculoskeletal injuries and prevent future injuries. However, Chiropractic Care can help much more than simply align our spines and help us avoid back pain.
There has been an exponential growth in multifaceted chiropractic care facilities. These offices offer well rounded chiropractic care as well as wellness counseling, mainly framed around the importance of nutrition. Many research studies over time and in recent years had identified the direct relationship between our musculoskeletal health and what we eat.
If our daily diet includes too many saturated fats, sugars, and processed foods, we are likely to gain weight and stress our musculoskeletal system. The lack of a balanced diet can lead to decreased neurological communication, pain and tendency for alignment of bones and muscles to deteriorate. These are some of the complications that nutrition affects the musculoskeletal system, and chiropractors are not willing to stand idly by while their patients are enacting behaviors that directly contribute to poor outcomes.
Chiropractic Physicians receive years of training and education in science as well as in nutrition over the course of their academic pathway, which makes them an overall health care practitioner with great potential for consult not only in what chiropractic care encompasses but nutrition and overall health concerns. They can help us form nutritional and overall lifestyle strategies to promote better health outcomes.
This is one of many ways chiropractic care can aid in your musculoskeletal health and overall health to prevent injuries and illness. Proper nutrition and supplementing are excellent ingredients to ensure the body is functioning at optimal level. As chiropractic relates to the human body as a whole and not just parts; if one area is out of balance it can lead to problems elsewhere.
