Chiropractors focus on the whole body, the whole person. A chiropractor is trained to realize how the bones, muscles, nerves, spinal cord, senses and the brain all work together. Apple Country Chiropractic works with lots of whole people in Williamson to relieve pain when the body is feeling down. Then, Apple Country Chiropractic offers proposals on how to maintain pain relief and control, so the pain doesn’t return. Exercise is one way to prolong pain relief. (1)

First of all, such a whole person focus allows our Williamson chiropractor to "get" your pain right away. We’ll understand that your leg feels like it is on fire and that it feels like that because a nerve in your spine may be irritated or pinched. Your brain knows it. Your leg knows it. Your back knows it. Apple Country Chiropractic’s chiropractor knows it. Once our chiropractic treatment plan tones down or eliminates that irritation, our chiropractic care favors ways to avoid such irritation in the future. That’s where exercise often comes into play.

Exercise reinforces parts of the body to make the whole body stronger. The muscles are important to the body’s function and motion as well as to keeping the bones aligned and the spine happy. Now, it’s even marked that exercise lowers the pain receptors’ production – dopamine and noradrenaline – for up to 90 minutes after you stop exercising. (1) What a boon for your pain relief!

So, exercise a bit when you are in pain. Don’t do anything until we talk about the right exercise for you, of course! But exercise goes hand in hand with your Williamson chiropractic pain relief, likely giving you the between-visit relief you want.
