The benefits of chiropractic care and your allergies

The benefits of chiropractic care and your allergies

Many people today suffer from allergies, each with their own severity. Whether it be a runny nose, coughing, or sneezing, we all experience them.  Most rely on medication to help alleviate their allergic reactions, but these medications do not cure the underlying cause. Here at Connetquot Chiropractic, our chiropractor in Ronkonkoma wants to inform you of the benefits of chiropractic care and allergies.

How do they relate?

Doctors and researchers have found that stress can affect the severity of your allergies.  Having immense amounts of stress can affect the adrenal gland, which is led directly by the spinal nerves.  The function of the adrenal gland is to produce the anti-inflammatory hormone cortisol, which is released in times of stress. This hormone can help calm your allergic reactions and producing very little of it can make the severity greater.

The release of these hormones is controlled through the brain and works through the spinal cord.  Therefore, by improving the brain's connection with the spinal cord, it can help regulate your body’s reaction to allergens. Spinal misalignments can interfere with the communication between the spinal nerves and brain, which in turn can affect the communication with the immune system. Our chiropractor in Ronkonkoma can correct the misalignments and restore the body’s natural position.  By correcting the misalignment, it will give the spinal nerves and brain passageways to the rest of the body.  A properly aligned spine can also benefit the production of cortisol, allowing the brain and spinal nerves to function properly and release normal amounts of the hormone.

Certain foods and other environmental factors can also affect your allergy symptoms, in a positive or negative way.  Our chiropractor in Ronkonkoma can provide you with specific recommendations on certain nutritional supplements. We recommend nutritional advice to help give a better understanding of what foods can worsen or ease your allergic reactions.

If you are someone who suffers from allergies and are looking for a treatment option that does not involve medicine, Connetquot Chiropractic can help you!
