Using Richmond chiropractic care as one complementary health alternative boosted patients sense of well-being and control of their health. 
 
CHIROPRACTIC: ONE WAY TO FEEL BETTER AND GAIN A SENSE OF CONTROL

“Listen to your elders!” A study of over-60 year olds stated that 29.2% of them used complementary health alternatives in the last 12 months: herbal therapies, chiropractic and massage lead the list. 60% of those folks said it was “important” for keeping their health and well-being. They stated that it improved their overall health, and they felt better. They had an enhanced sense of control over their health. They said these types of interventions made it easier to cope with their health problems. (1) Today more than ever, we in Richmond all need a better sense of control over our health and well-being. Your Richmond chiropractor is with you in good times and hard times, for young folks and elders! Come see us soon. In the meantime, take advice from the CDC while the coronavirus pandemic is on our minds, too, as they are all things within our control when so much around us is not. (2)

Correcting Richmond vitamin D deficiency increases the immune system to ward off disease and even depression. 

TIP OF THE MONTH: Take Vitamin D

A healthy body relies on a healthy, well-functioning immune system. Vitamin D supports a health immune system and helps combat challenges to it. Air pollution is a challenge as it can trigger undue immune responses: infection, cancer, auto-immune conditions. Inhaled air pollution typically lands on respiratory mucosa and influences the respiratory system. (We hear a lot about the respiratory system today.) Vitamin D supplementation is a strategy research proposes may enhance the immune system to combat such invasion. (3) Vitamin D is reportedly advantageous to improve and keep clinical depression at bay via its homeostatic, immunomodulatory and neuroprotective roles. (4) Everyone from government, research and industry around the world know that vitamin D deficiency is a big problem. They are seeking for ways to deal with it and respond to the questions “How much vitamin D should I take a day?” and “How best do we ensure everyone gets that?” (5) Let’s discuss this at your next chiropractic appointment and set a plan to boost your vitamin D level and allow your body to fight health-compromising issues.
