Digestive Problems

Digestive problems often find themselves bubbling up at inopportune times and cause major discomfort. Food and eating are a central part of any culture, and we want to be able to enjoy a family BBQ without fear of digestive problems. In America, around 60 to 70 million people suffer from digestive problems and chronic conditions, and studies show it continues to get worse, with no definitive root cause.

The most common digestive problems are issues like constipation, ulcers, acid reflux and more. Conditions like nausea, indigestion, bloating and irritable bowel syndrome all qualify as digestive problems and can make life uncomfortable or difficult for sufferers to manage. While many over-the-counter medicines or at-home remedies can sometimes help, it’s often not enough to treat more serious or chronic conditions.

For when the over-the-counter medicines or at-home remedies don’t help, you’ll need something more impactful, and that’s where chiropractic care comes in. Your musculoskeletal and nervous systems are interconnected which, in turn, impacts how well your digestive system operates. Learn how chiropractic care for digestive problems can help!

How Chiropractic Care for Digestive Problems Helps

Through the actions of our nerves and muscles, our abdominal region and digestive system stay in good condition. Muscle tension alone can cause serious, chronic digestion problems. If you find yourself under constant emotional stress or holding bad posture (especially while eating), you’re inevitably going to feel the effects throughout your digestive system.

When it comes to nervous systems, it’s important to ensure it functions to its full capacity without difficulty. Subluxations cause unnecessary stress to your nerves, which leads to overactivity within your body’s pain receptors. While nerve conditions are not likely a direct cause to certain stomach conditions, they can make them worse.

Adjusting your spinal curvature is highly effective in reducing musculoskeletal and nervous system problems, which can relieve the tension and discomfort associated with digestive problems.
