Chronic Pain and Summer Heat
What’s The Connection and Can Chiropractic Help?
As the summer starts to heat up, paying attention to any chronic pain you may have is essential. While summer is a great time to get active outside, it can also cause problems for people who struggle with chronic pain. At MCR Chiropractic, we provide chiropractic in communities across Massachusetts to ease issues with chronic pain.
Heat and Humidity with Chronic Pain
Heat and humidity have the potential to make symptoms worse for some patients. Humidity tends to cause inflammation, which can worsen people’s symptoms. It can be challenging to manage chronic pain, and fast changes in humidity levels can lead to unpredictable symptoms. Chiropractors can help address the root of your chronic pain and keep you moving during the hot summer months.
How Chiropractic Helps
Chiropractors adjust or manipulate the spine and sometimes other parts of the body. Why? They do this to correct alignment, improve motion and physical function, and support the body’s ability to heal itself. It’s believed that realigning the spine reduces pressure on the central nervous system. Chiropractors use their hands or instruments to adjust specific body parts with a sudden controlled force.
What to Expect During Your Chiropractic Visits
Your journey at MCR Chiropractic begins with an evaluation and establishing your goals for care. From there, your chiropractor will create a care plan just for you!
