Colds, Flu & your Chiropractor

Every second people seem to be harbouring a cold or flu in the last few weeks. Did you know that your Chiropractor may be able to help lessen the symptoms and increase your recovery speed of colds and flu? Research shows the relationship between your nervous system and immune system indicating that reducing nerve interference for someone with a cold or flu may increase their speed of recovery. Gentle Chiropractic care may also help to reduce fatigue when you are not feeling well. And even better news, in a US study of 2818 people those receiving Chiropractic wellness healthcare had a 15% lower incidence of colds and flu than those that were not seeing a Chiropractor for maintenance care when feeling fine. If you do feel a cold or flu coming on or you are in the middle of it and it’s a full-blown miserable mess, contact your Chiropractor as soon as possible.
