Chiropractic Care and Gut Health

Do you suffer from gut health issues like frequent stomachaches or cramping?

Have you given up hope that you’ll be able to have a normal life without digestive issues?

Normal digestive function is controlled by the parasympathetic nervous system. The nervous system is broken down into two divisions:

• Sympathetic: commonly known as fight or flight, responsible for activating our stress response.
• Parasympathetic: responsible for rest and digestion, activated after we eat a meal to digest and break down our food.

If the parasympathetic nervous system doesn’t work properly, it can affect your ability to extract the nutrients from food that you need. Misalignments in your vertebrae can interfere with the way your nerves function, which can cause your organs to malfunction, resulting in heartburn, gas, cramping, or other symptoms.

Muscle tension in your abdomen can also contribute to digestive issues. That can be caused by stress, or by sitting for hours every day like many of us do at our jobs.
