What Is Neurological-Based Chiropractic & Why Does It Matter?
Unlike traditional chiropractic care that focuses mainly on pain relief and structural alignment, neurological-based chiropractic looks at how the brain and spinal cord communicate with the entire body.
Why Is the Nervous System So Important?
The nervous system is the body's control center—it regulates movement, immune function, digestion, healing, and overall well-being. If there is stress or interference in the nervous system (subluxations), the body cannot function at its best.
When the nervous system is healthy, you experience:
✔️ Better energy levels
✔️ Improved digestion and metabolism
✔️ Faster healing and recovery
✔️ Balanced hormones and emotions
When the nervous system is out of balance, you may experience:
✔️ Chronic pain and tension
✔️ Brain fog, headaches, and poor concentration
✔️ Digestive issues, immune system challenges
✔️ Sleep struggles and mood swings
Sympathetic vs. Parasympathetic: Are You Stuck in "Fight or Flight"?
Your nervous system has two key states:
✔️ Sympathetic ("Fight or Flight") – Stress, anxiety, tension, and poor sleep all contribute to a heightened stress response in the body, leading to inflammation and dysfunction.
✔️ Parasympathetic ("Rest & Heal") – This is where the body recovers, heals, and optimally functions. Chiropractic care helps shift the body out of stress mode, allowing it to self-regulate and heal.
At Grounded Roots Chiropractic, we use CLA Insight Scans to assess how well your nervous system is functioning and provide targeted care to help restore balance, promote healing, and optimize your health.
