There has been much panic and concern since the recent announcement of Corona Virus Outbreak as Public Health Emergency of International Concern by WHO recently. According to WHO, while we still need to learn more about how 2019-nCoV affects people, thus far, older people, and people with pre-existing medical conditions appear to be more at risk of developing severe complications such as breathing difficulties, pneumonia with potentially fatal outcome. The critical focus therefore should be on maintaining good health and ensuring a strong immune system to defend oneself from such risks.
Among adults, the risk for severe illness from COVID-19 increases with age, with the older people at highest risk. There are two things that should be priorities during this pandemic. Do everything reasonable to not get infected with the virus in the first place! Strengthen your immune system and improve…
Apart from being an effective treatment to reduce the pain without drugs or surgeries, chiropractic care also brings additional benefits to overall wellness, including very importantly the boosting of immune system. How does chiropractic care help in that regard?
– The human body manufactures billions of new cells every single day and constantly fights off foreign invaders and diseases. The body turns nutrients into living cells and tissues to be able to combat negativity in the environment.
– The spine’s intimate relationship with the brain and central nervous system holds the key to better health and disease prevention. A properly aligned spine moves fluidly and allows the body to communicate between organs and the immune system.
– Chiropractic adjustments boost the production of Interleukin-2, a protein that regulates the activities of immune-fighting white blood cells.
– Adjustments on inflamed areas of the body reduce stress on the nervous system, allowing it to better communicate with the rest of the body. The better the nervous system can function and communicate, the better the whole body can function and maintain optimal health.
When you are suffering from spinal health problems such as disk syndrome, spinal degeneration or sciatica, you may be in the higher risk group of being vulnerable to viruses. Not only chiropractic treatment can reduce pain caused by those chronic diseases, it could also improve your immune system in a fight against any outbreak.
