Should You Consider Chiropractic Care for Weight Loss?

Have you tried every new weight loss method promoted by various influencers? Did you count calories, and ate only white foods one day and green ones the other? Did you even get a gym subscription? Yet, you are still unhappy with your body.

The problem with weight loss is that it is not a quick fix. And it does not involve only your body. As any chiropractor can tell you, your entire being is affected by every single choice you make. And this is why you should consider chiropractic care for weight loss.

First of all, you need to forget one concept, once and for all: that there are miracle solutions for weight loss. No licensed chiropractor will promise you that. We have a professional code of ethics that obliges us to tell our patients the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

We cannot perform a magic adjustment that gets you on a weight loss curve. What we can do is recreate a good balance in the way your body works, so that you can move freely when exercising and digest your food properly.

Your chiropractor is not a plastic surgeon – we do not look at various body parts that need to lose fat layers. We look at the entire person and realize that weight gain is the cause of some kind of imbalance in the organism.

The human body is extremely complex, consisting of various systems (blood vessels, skeleton, muscles, digestive system, respiratory system, etc.) all controlled by the brain.

And how does the brain communicate with all the organs and systems? The answer is: through the nervous system.

And if we picture the nervous system as a network of roads, then the spinal cord is a superhighway that takes all the messages from the brain and directs them to various other parts of the body. This is why chiropractors mainly focus on spine adjustments as part of their therapy.

Many people believe that they cannot exercise. In reality, their body is prevented from moving as it should be small, invisible misalignments in the spine and joints. This is where chiropractic care for weight loss intervenes.

The chiropractor’s careful manipulations realign vertebrae, neck, and shoulder joints. As a result of the reduced pressure, the muscles regain their natural flexibility. Following a progressive routine, the patient will be able to do various exercises, with increasing levels of difficulty, and start losing weight.

Adjustments May Improve Digestion

“I get fat even after drinking water”. How many chiropractors and nutritionists heard this sentence? Countless, we believe. The problem is sometimes in the process of digestion, and rarely in an absolutely out-of-order metabolism.

Since various nerves in the spine are actually sending signals to the stomach to process food in a specific period of time, if these signals are perturbed, the digestion is also thrown out of balance.

Thus, chiropractic care for weight loss can actually reset your digestion to its regular schedule and allow you to get more nutrients out of less food.

The Chiropractor Can Help You Get Started with Exercising

For someone who never exercised in a dedicated manner, going to the gym can be a daunting task. Before you get there, you should ask your chiropractor to teach you simple stretching and fitness routines that you can perform at home.

Once you are confident that you can use gym equipment without risking injury, you can take the big step and get a subscription. However, you should not abandon chiropractic care for weight loss. Many chiropractors are trained to help athletes prevent and heal workout-related injuries.

Chiropractic Massage Relaxes Your Body and Mind

Finally, we believe that chiropractic massage is a great aid in weight loss. We highly recommend it after a workout routine and at the end of very stressful days. In this instance, chiropractic care for weight loss has a positive impact not only on your body but on your mind, as well.

Stress can make people turn to comfort foods like snacks and sweets. Instead of tricking your mind into happiness with sugars and fats, let chiropractic massage relieve the tension caused by stress.
