7.1% of the US population suffers from one bought of depression a year, which is roughly 17 million Americans. This subset of afflicted people should be made aware of the potential health benefits of getting the upper cervical spine corrected. In this paper we discuss how an adjustment to one of the top two neck bones creates a positive change in the function of the opposite side of the brain that was adjusted. The Depressive state has been known to be a deficiency of function in the left hemisphere, and over-activity of the right. So the Doctors observed a greater mental health change in those that got adjusted on the right side of the brain, therefore an increased function of the left hemisphere, and a more balanced brain. But the Doctors also saw a positive outcome with depression in those that were adjusted on the left side because, as we know, when we adjust the upper neck it helps the entire brain function better as well as the rest of the body.

So if you know of someone that has been struggling with depression let them know they don’t have to suffer. Upper Cervical Chiropractic care may be a significant help! Call our office to find out more today
