Discover the Benefits of Chiropractic for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Do you feel permanently exhausted, even after a full night’s sleep? Do you find it hard to focus on tasks at work? Do you suffer from headaches frequently? Then you probably suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome. At our chiropractic practice, we have extensive experience in treating patients who suffer from this condition. And in this article, we will explain to you everything you need to know about chiropractic for chronic fatigue syndrome.

What Are the Causes of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?

Until quite recently, the medical community did not even recognize chronic fatigue syndrome as a condition. However, it is a dire and debilitating reality for people like you, who suffer from it. It truly adds insult to the injury when you are told that you are just tired, isn’t it?



However, chiropractic for chronic fatigue syndrome exists because our branch of medicine does not dismiss any condition that limits your ability to enjoy life. And, as more doctors started to pay attention to CFS, they also discovered the root causes of this condition:

•    Hormonal imbalances

•    Immune system problems

•    Physical trauma.

Why You Should Not Ignore Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

As we grow up, we are taught to “deal with it” when it comes to many situations when we do not feel well. Being an adult means being able to put up a happy face and carry on with your work and family life.



This approach is extremely wrong and detrimental. A patient with CFS cannot deal with permanent physical and mental exhaustion. They will find their lifestyle confined to a cycle of trying to work and trying to rest at home. Socializing, being intimate with their partner, pursuing hobbies they used to enjoy are left behind.



In time, this leads to social isolation, depression, and poor performance at work. However, you have the power to stop this vicious cycle by choosing chiropractic for chronic fatigue syndrome.

Nurturing Nerves: Upper Cervical Chiropractic and its Impact on Nervous System Health

Feb 09, 2024

A chiropractor is trained to look beyond the visible symptoms and identify the root cause of your CFS. In many cases, chronic fatigue syndrome is triggered by physical and emotional trauma, such as being involved in a traffic accident.



Chiropractic for chronic fatigue syndrome has two phases:

Phase 1 – Solving the Immediate Cause of CFS

The chiropractor will identify the physical cause of your CFS, which in many cases is a vertebral subluxation. This misalignment between vertebrae is putting pressure on nerves in your spine.



As you may know, nerves control everything in your body – from your movements to your immune system, digestion, and ability to perform high-precision tasks. When a nerve is pinched or restricted by a vertebral subluxation, it is no longer able to pass messages from the brain effectively.



Thus, using various adjustment techniques, the chiropractor will restore the vertebrae to their normal position, reducing pressure and inflammation on the respective nerve.

Phase 2 – Creating a Long Term Program to Help You Prevent CFS in the Future

Chiropractors know that CFS may reappear, especially if it is triggered by hormonal or immune system problems. For this reason, the second phase of chiropractic for chronic fatigue syndrome aims to prevent this condition from reoccurring, by:

•    Helping you adopt a healthy diet, full of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients

•    Creating a detox program to eliminate heavy metals from your body

•    Encouraging you to stop taking pain medication and sleeping aids

•    Teaching you how to relieve stress in a healthy, natural way.



At the same time, you are encouraged to come for regular chiropractic maintenance appointments – once per month is usually enough. These appointments will help the chiropractor understand how you progress with your new lifestyle and perform simple adjustments and massages that keep your body in good shape.



Chiropractic for chronic fatigue syndrome is a tested and proven medical procedure that has helped many patients regain control over their lives. We encourage you to contact our chiropractic clinic and set up an initial evaluation appointment.
