Ventura Chiropractor Reveals How Chiropractic Care Could Help You To Get Relief From Your Allergy Symptoms

By · Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

Your Ventura Chiropractor knows that allergies can make our everyday life a misery. Unwelcome symptoms like itchy eyes, a runny nose, sneezing, or a skin rash can result from a simple walk in the garden, a play date with Kitty, a shellfish stew, or even something as small as a nut.

To make the situation worse, for some individuals, and perhaps you’re one of them allergic reactions can go from just plain irritating to dangerous and life-threatening as the air passageway begins to close and breathing becomes labored. This progression of symptoms can commonly cause a state of panic.

In fact, if you have allergies, it may seem that, from time-to-time, your environment is an intensely hostile place and that the world around you is, literally, out to get you!

You may wonder why it is that other individuals seem so unaffected by the environment, while your body reacts, or rather overreacts, to it. It’s a good question. The answer is because some people, like you, have a hyperactive immune system that actually “freaks out” when you come into contact with common substances such as pollen, dander, shellfish, or nuts.

Have you been wondering if your Ventura Chiropractor can help your allergies? The answer may surprise you. A lot of individuals have noticed that they experience ease from their allergy symptoms after chiropractic treatment, even though chiropractic care doesn’t actually treat allergies.

This relief occurs because chiropractic adjustments affect the whole nervous system, including the autoimmune system. When there’s an impedance in the nervous system, along with other problems, the autoimmune system, whose responsibility it is to help you to adapt and respond appropriately to your environment, can become under-active or overactive. In the case of your allergies, the impairment is the latter (it becomes overactive).

Because chiropractic adjustments reduce or eliminate disturbances in the nervous system and bring back balance and harmony to the body, the manipulations bring that same homeostasis to the auto-immune system as well. A strong immune system reacts appropriately to so-called allergens in the environment.

So, as explained above, your chiropractor doesn’t directly treat allergies. You could say, instead, that a decrease in your allergies is simply the by-product of a healthy nervous system. If you’d like to get back into harmony with your environment as soon as possible, make an appointment with Ventura Chiropractor today.
