Spring Time Allergies
April Newsletter – Volume:3, No:4
Since its inception, chiropractic has
asserted that viruses and microbes
don't threaten us all equally and that
a healthy immune system easily
repels most invaders. The immune
system protects us from the flu, as
well as any other infectious disease,
and strives to get us well again when
we do fall ill. Our immune system,
like every other system in the body, is
coordinated and controlled by the
nervous system. For example, nerve
cell endings in the skin and white
blood cells of the immune system are
in intimate contact, and chemicals
secreted by the nerves can shut down
immune system cells nearby.
The most common immune
disorder is the allergic reaction which
occurs when the immune system
overreacts to an allergen (dust,
pollen, milk, dog or cat dander,
strawberries, etc.) and produces too
many neutralizing chemicals
(especially histamines) to counteract
it.
During an immune response, the
brain and the immune system 'talk to
each other' and this process is
essential for maintaining homeostasis
or balance in the body. If the Nervous
System is not functioning properly,
then the Immune System cannot
function at 100%, thus the body
becomes fertile ground for bacteria,
viruses and illness

Even though you are not sick, your
body may be acquiring misalignments of
the spine (subluxations) that are
interfering with your nervous system and
thus your immune system. Regular
chiropractic check-ups can help you to
maintain a healthy immune system and
stave off illnesses or allergies. A
chiropractic adjustment will restore the
balance of your nervous system and
restore the flow of energy and
information throughout the body, thus
validating one of the great benefits of
chiropractic care!
Among the many things contributing
to your health: the quality of the air,
food and water you take in; how you
handle emotional stress; your inherited
weaknesses and strengths; your use of
drugs; exercise; and relaxation-a
healthy spine is absolutely essential. In
some people it is a major factor and can
make the difference between a life of
health, strength and vitality or a life of
disease, weakness and disability.
Children who have regular
Chiropractic adjustments have fewer
colds, ear infections and flu. "People who
receive regular chiropractic adjustments
have immune system competency that is
200% greater than those who don't." (Dr.
Ron Pero. New York Preventative
Medicine Institute and Environmental
Health at NYU)
No matter what disease or condition
you have, you can benefit from a healthy
spine. Spinal health can be as important
for your overall healing as proper
nutrition. Are you and your family
carrying the vertebral subluxation
complex in your spines? Only a
chiropractic spinal checkup will tell.
