Sneezing. Watery eyes. Coughing. A runny nose. Nasal congestion. These are just some of the many symptoms of allergies. In simple terms, an allergy is an overreaction of the immune system. Someone who is adjusted regularly could be exposed to an allergen such as ragweed pollen but not have symptoms. Another person, who’s also exposed to that same allergen, but who doesn’t get adjusted, often will have symptoms.
Why is that? A highly functioning immune system fortifies the body against the invasion of foreign substances such as pollen, pollution or pet dander. That robust immune system heads off these “invaders” before they can negatively impact the body.
Balancing Your Nervous System
If you’ve put up with annoying allergies for years, a chiropractic adjustment could help. By getting checked and adjusted, we can balance your immune system and keep you healthy. That means you’ll likely have fewer symptoms and you may not have to rely on those popular OTC allergy medications.
Please note that we will never tell a patient not to take medication. But we do have many patients who went back to their doctor after being under chiropractic care. Their doctor would run various tests such as labs and let that patient know that they don’t need the medication any longer because their body is functioning better.
