💚Chiropractic Care Aiding In Mental Health💚

Image
        Good mental health is achieved through a healthy mind-body connection. The Psychology professional has the tools to properly diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health challenges. The Chiropractic professional has the tools to diagnose and treat the neuromuscular contributing factors that can cause or amplify these mental health challenges.       Types of mental health conditions most seen in a chiropractic office: Stress and Anxiety: When people don’t feel well, they get nervous about their situation and become edgy and unsettled. Chiropractic care has a great track record of helping people feel better, which tends to reduce their anxious feelings and reduce the effects of stress on the human body. Depression:  This tends to affect people who have not been feeling well for many months or years. They have lost their ability to be active and enjoy life. They feel down or depressed and think that they are just getting older and will never be the same again. A thorough chiro

Good Health On A Dime

Image
Did you know the weight of a dime is 2.268 grams? That’s all it takes to decrease normal nerve transmission by 70%! These nerve transmissions are communicating vital instructions like “how your immune system responds to pre-cancerous lesions” or “how many times your heart needs to beat.”    You want those messages traveling at the highest possible speeds with NO interference from a subluxation.   So how do you remove these interferences? Regular chiropractic care. Watch Dr. Gary Shoemker explain how the weight of a dime can interfere with normal nerve transmission. Become A Patient Don't let your good health stop on a dime; call Clairpointe Family Chiropractic at (313) 886-8030 to see how we can remove any spinal interference (subluxations), keeping your nervous system working at its fullest!

Preparing For Cold and Flu Season

There is more to chiropractic than most people presume. In fact, while nearly everyone understands the general benefits of regular chiropractic care, there are a few things that aren’t widely known.    For example, did you know chiropractic adjustments aid in your overall health? Having your spine adjusted by a licensed chiropractor helps to relieve the pain from your back and neck, but it also helps to remove any interference that you may have in your immune system.  Our immune system is directly connected to our spine, and when it is not properly aligned or subluxated (misalignment of the spine), it may throw your entire system off track. Thus, weakening your immune system.  Chiropractors may use a variety of spinal manipulations to help relieve this compression and, in turn, open the pathway to a properly functioning immune system. Along with chiropractic care, taking pharmaceutical-grade supplements is essential. Below are supplements the doctors at Clairpointe Family Chiropractic

Chiropractic Care Helping with Seasonal and Chronic Allergies

Image
Chiropractic Care Can Help With Seasonal and Chronic Allergies You may be aware that chiropractic adjustments can improve a lot of conditions, but did you know it can help manage sinusitis and seasonal allergies? Chiropractic Adjustments Your sinuses are hollow spaces within the bones of the cheeks and forehead. Sinus problems occur when mucus takes over your tissues and blocks drainage. This increased pressure, in effect, causes clogged nasal passages, swelling, and other forms of pain. Spinal manipulations of the cervical spine can promote sinus drainage, which can be the leading cause of pain and discomfort. When dealing with sinusitis and seasonal allergies, the doctors at Clairpointe Family Chiropractic first suggested getting your chiropractic adjustment.  (Note: In the video, Dr. Shoe talks about Sago C, which is no longer available. We now suggest taking Buffer Lemon C Powder as a substitute.) Managing Your Sinus Pain At Home Here are a few other tips we suggest at Clairpointe

Family Chiropractic Care

Here at Clairpointe Family Chiropractic, we encourage the whole family to be under chiropractic care. Below are reasons why we believe lifelong chiropractic care is vital for everyone!   The Birthing Process Going through the birthing process is the roughest ride you'll ever take in your whole life. A vaginal delivery and C-section have many different factors that can lead to the baby's neck and spine being twisted or compressed, leading to other health issues down the road. Ideally, babies should be checked and adjusted as soon as possible after birth to avoid undue stress during birth. After that, we advise parents to have their babies and children checked and adjusted once a month, which helps keep their immune systems strong and helps fight off colds, cases of flu, and viruses.  Athletics  Kids are playing many sports these days, which can lead to impacts and traumas on their neck and spine. Having a chiropractor check and adjust their spine will help them from developing a

Kids Need Chiropractic Care too!

The Birthing Process Going through the birth canal or being born cesarean is one of the roughest rides you'll ever take in your whole life.  The spine gets compressed, then it gets twisted and pulled. Sometimes, those vertebrae will push on those delicate nerves and can cause all kinds of health concerns. This is where chiropractic care can help. Gently realigning the spine and removing any possible subluxations will open up communication between the nerves and the body.   Symptoms Infants and children with spinal subluxations can experience issues with reflux, colic, earaches, bedwetting, and more.  Those things can all be helped with chiropractic care. Chiropractic Care At Clairpointe Family Chiropractic, our chiropractors specialize in adjusting infants and children with gentle chiropractic adjustments. We are able to remove any interference in your baby or child's spine to allow optimal health. Benefits of Chiropractic Care Here are the benefits of children and infants bein
