Chiropractic Treatment For Allergies

With warm weather comes fun days in the sun enjoying the great outdoors! After a cold winter, spending some time outside is a great stress reliever. Yet the blooming plant life brings a dangerous threat: allergy season. Your allergies can make you downright miserable in the warmer seasons. Drs. Richard Cohen, Rob Josefsson, and Paul Newhouse offer chiropractic treatment for allergies. Contact Catalina Medical Center in Redondo Beach, CA, to learn more.


 


You may not think so, but your immune system and nervous system are closely connected. Allergy season knocks them both down a notch and off their game. Spinal adjustments are the solution. Your Redondo Beach chiropractor realigns your spine to increase your overall body function.


 


The nervous system is housed in the spine. Its function is to keep constant communication between your body and brain. Any blockages in the spine or neck halt this communication. Spinal adjustments correct misalignments and subluxation. It relieves bulging or herniated discs, along with compressed nerves. The results are a heightened immune system alongside joint pain or soft tissue relief.


 


Stress can lead to chronic and acute health conditions. It aggravates your allergen sensitivity. Stressors overwork your adrenal glands. You’ll have a harder time controlling your allergic reactions. A realignment of the spine reduces your body's production of cortisol, the stress hormone.


 


Your dietary and exercise routine also have an impact on your immune system. A stronger respiratory system heightens your body’s defense against allergens. It’s the main target of allergens, containing your nose, ears, throat, and lungs.


 


Don’t let allergies stop you from enjoying this summer season. Contact Catalina Medical Center today. Drs. Richard Cohen, Rob Josefsson, and Paul Newhouse are available by appointment. Visit their website or call 310-378-7246.

Chiropractic Treatment and Migraines

The Catalina Medical Center r ecommends chiropractic adjustments for migraine sufferers who have yet to find relief. Chiropractic treatment will not cure migraines, but it is one of the few ways to be proactive against migraines and help prevent them.  In someone prone to migraine episodes, a trigger can often be a misalignment, or subluxation of the spine.  Migraines can begin with tension in the neck, but even patients without migraines find keeping their neck free of kinks helps improve frequent headaches. Dysfunctional vertebrae in the neck can cause increased muscle tension and interrupt the nerves that control blood flow to the brain. Chiropractic adjustments relieve the pressure and tension that results in headaches, and keep the spine aligned to help it function at its best. Regular chiropractic adjustments also help facilitate healthy blood flow and nerve function.  For a chronic migraine sufferer it may take weeks of consistent adjustments, but patients will experience a sign
