I am not sure that anyone has ever become ill and thought, “I think my nervous system is out of whack.” Although it may have never crossed your mind, it can be exactly the case. A basic knowledge of the nervous system can help you determine what type of assistance might be needed as unwanted illnesses strike. You can begin to educate yourself with a basic knowledge of the nervous system. This is the system that must function properly so that your body can function correctly.
The Nervous System
Have you ever taken a long look at the function of the nervous system? It is a complex part of the body. The nervous system includes the nerves, spine and brain. The nervous system communicates organ function and controls senses. Without a properly functioning nervous system your body could miscommunicate messages that cause havoc on your life.
Keeping the Nervous System Healthy
Chiropractic care helps keep the nervous system in top performing order. When your spine is not in appropriate alignment, the messages that are carried through the spine are also interrupted and slower to be delivered. This can throw the body out of control. Seeking help from your chiropractor can assist you in maintaining a healthy nervous system.
Benefits of a Healthy Nervous System
Believe it or not, the simple act of taking care of your nervous system can have positive effects on both the endocrine and the immune system. The three systems work together to make the body function, therefore when one system is run down, all are affected. Likewise, when one is in top condition it helps to improve the other two. Diseases that are proven to be improved by maintaining a healthy nervous system include:
- Vertigo
- Cerebral Palsy
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Parkinsons
- Autism
There are many body functions that are affected by the health of the systems of your body. Some of these functions go unnoticed but the role each plays in the body is important to your overall health. Body functions that can improve with the maintenance of a healthy nervous system include:
- Metabolism
- Growth and Development
- Sexual Function
- Sleep
