Can Chiropractic Care Make You Age More Slowly?

At Zen Care Physical Medicine, we have all types of patients, but they seem to share one major goal: to feel young and full of energy! Since everyone wants to feel healthy and vital, it’s not surprising that we often get asked questions like “can chiropractic help me feel younger?” or “does chiropractic improve energy levels?”. If you want to know if chiropractic care can make you age more slowly, read on to discover exactly how this revolutionary therapeutic has transformed our patients’ lives—and can transform yours, too!

Can chiropractic care make you feel younger?

Many adults and seniors have this question, which is completely warranted. It’s typical to feel like our bodies are working less efficiently as we grow older. Even though our minds may feel young, adult patients often experience decreased flexibility and mental fog due to stress, lifestyle, age, and overall health. Additionally, health and agility also appear to degrade with time; however, this natural process should be expected.

Various activities and positions can cause long-term stress on different parts of the body. For example, runners or joggers may experience changes in their bones and joints from the impact of jogging. But, this slouched posture desk workers often sit in can also have a similar effect, slowly misshaping spinal joints over time.

Lifestyle can speed up or slow degenerative changes in the body. Chiropractic care can fill in the gaps to help you feel younger again!

Chiropractic care is an effective treatment that can make your body feel like the damage has been undone, though it cannot truly undo degenerative damage. This is because chiropractic works on the neuro-musculoskeletal system.

The neuro-musculoskeletal system, which is the combination of the nervous system, muscular system, and skeletal system, represents a lot of where the pain in the body comes from. When this system isn’t working together correctly, it can make a person feel old, stiff, and in pain as well as cause degeneration.

At Zen Care Physical Medicine, we treat the neuro-musculoskeletal system using three major forms of care: spinal decompression, Chiropractic BioPhysics®, and laser therapy. Together, these three forms of care help to stimulate regeneration and relax tense and tight muscles.

Spinal decompression gently pulls on the spine, opening up space between the joints. This influx of blood circulation can help to heal and alleviate pain in problem areas. Additionally, it stimulates the lymphatic system which helps release trapped toxins and stagnation throughout the body.

In the same way, laser therapy can trigger the body’s natural healing reaction. As light enters the body, it has the potential to reduce inflammation, break up scar tissue, relieve pain, and improve circulation. Chiropractic BioPhysics® aligns the spine correctly which takes the pressure off nerves and reenergizes posture. Our patients have also said that this type of therapy helps them feel more energetic again.

At Zen Care Physical Medicine in Irvine, we’ve found that combining these three therapies results in our patients feeling like they’ve turned back the clock.

Problems in the joints can lead to problems in the rest of your body

If you’re struggling with fatigue, poor focus, soreness, and inflexibility (among other issues), then it’s likely that your joints are in need of attention. When our joints are out of alignment, we may experience pain throughout the body as well as a decreased quality of life.

The disks between your joints act as cushions, however, over time they can become worn down. This is especially true as we age and put more wear and tear on our bodies through work or exercise. When the padding in our joints wears down it causes problems not just in that area, but throughout the entire body since the skeletal system is the foundation of everything else.

Chiropractic can protect your joints and stimulate your body’s own regenerative healing response.

If you are struggling with pain or other issues due to your lifestyle, age, or genetics, then it might be time to try chiropractic care. Chiropractic care jump-starts and supports your body’s own healing response so that you can heal naturally without surgery, medication, or invasive treatments. In some cases, chiropractic care can even reverse the damage that has already been done!

The potential benefits of regular chiropractic care

Regular chiropractic care has many potential benefits if you want to improve your health and well-being.

Reduced Pain

Chiropractic care offers patients an opportunity to experience reduced pain in their bodies, often immediately after beginning treatments. Some people feel a complete reduction of pain over time, while for others the effect is temporary. Results vary from person to person but regardless, experiencing reduced pain during and after chiropractic care is common and not unusual for our patients.

Improved Flexibility/Mobility

After receiving chiropractic care, many people see vast improvements in their flexibility and mobility due to the fact that it primarily benefits the musculoskeletal system. Chiropractic can relax tight muscles, return joints’ flexibility and mobility, as well as reducing inflammation and pain. You may experience an increased range of motion along with newfound ease of movement; additionally, you will likely find yourself less sore after sitting or standing for long periods of time.

Mental Clarity

Clarity of thought and enhanced mental cognition are common benefits that people who receive regular chiropractic treatment notice in their daily lives. This is because chiropractic care helps to regulate the nervous system’s electrical impulses, which improves overall thinking, clarity of thought, and memory.

Increased Energy

According to our patients, chiropractic care leaves them feeling more energetic. This is likely because chiropractic enhances nervous system function, circulation, and the body’s ability to detoxify -all of which lead to increased energy levels.
