It’s not uncommon for people to wait until they’re in pain before visiting the chiropractor. People can be surprisingly resilient, chalking up those ongoing headaches or that chronic low back pain to the computer or a bad night’s sleep. But instead of turning to over-the-counter pain pills as a routine method of managing these discomforts, you might consider visiting a chiropractor. Here are five great reasons to visit a Reno chiropractor, like Dr. Lynelle McSweeney, today. Read More
New year, new you! That’s how the saying goes, but we all know how hard it is to commit to really making a change. Sometimes, a little advantage can make all the difference. So it’s good to know that if changing your health and wellness is something you’re considering for 2019, a chiropractor like Dr. Lynelle McSweeney may be able to help. Here are three reasons to start the new year with chiropractic.
Living with chronic pain in the neck, temples, back, or joints can make it hard to just get through the day. When your spine is out of alignment, it creates pain and pressure not just in the back but all over the body. Chiropractors like Dr. McSweeney are trained to address your spine’s health and make you feel better. You’d be amazed what a pain-free existence feels like!
That misaligned spine doesn’t just cause you physical pain. It also affects your immune system and energy levels. An unhealthy spine has a detrimental effect on your nervous system because it interferes with communication in the body. Starting the new year with more energy and a healthier, more robust immune system will have a big pay-off.
A fully functioning spine that’s firing on all cylinders can make it easier to focus and concentrate. That’s not only because pain can be distracting, but also because a nervous system that can’t properly function negatively impacts our ability to concentrate. That fuzziness isn’t automatically associated with spinal health for many, but it’s often one of the biggest factors. After chiropractic care, many people find that they more fully focus.
Starting the new year with less pain, more energy and better focus sounds like an amazing way to greet 2019. If you’ve never visited the chiropractor before, learn what you can expect at your first visit with Dr. McSweeney here in Reno. Happy New Year!
