Chiropractic adjustment has been highly embraced in pain management to complement traditional medical care. It involves treatment where a licensed chiropractor uses pressure to manipulate joints in your body to help realign the spine and reduce pain and discomfort. Chiropractor adjustment significantly helps relieve back, neck, and joint aches through a non-invasive technique. Chiropractic therapy majorly involves the use of manual or hands-on therapy that is performed to promote musculoskeletal health. The chiropractic adjustment or manipulation performed on the spine and other parts of the body is aimed at correcting alignment, improving motion and physical function, and helping the body gain the ability to heal itself. Realigning the spine helps reduce pressure on the central nervous system.

Subacute pain lasts for a few weeks or months, while chronic pain lasts for more than three months.

How Breathing Can Reduce Stress and Quiet the Mind: A Guide to Deep Breathing Techniques and the Autonomic Nervous System – Dr. Jason Jones Elizabeth City NC, Chiropractor

Breathing is an automatic process that we all do without thinking about it. On average, we take 20,000 breaths per day.

Although breathing takes a subconscious effort, did you know that you can pay more attention to how you breath and significantly impact your stress level? You indeed have the power to change your breathing to relax your brain deliberately. Breath control dramatically helps to manage stress by promoting brain relaxation.
