Stress, Pain, the Immune System, and Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care

You've probably heard the phrase "it's all in your head".  Since the brain is the master control center for all the functions of the body, there is a lot of truth to that statement! Research studies show the way that you experience pain, depends on your personal situation and what you feel about the situation.  Over time, stress and pain make changes in the brain and body, and alter your immune system. This can lead to slow healing, inflammation, depression, and even more stress and pain! 

So what can you do? Fortunately there are a lot of measures you can take to help. Staying positive, meditation, moving more, sleeping well, and eating better can all help with the vicious cycle of stress and pain. Upper Cervical chiropractic care can help, too! Not only can it help with migraines, back pain, and neck pain, it also helps your brain know more accurately what is going on in and around your body.
