If you’re struggling to get a good night’s rest, you’ve probably tried a million different tips and tricks. However, did you know that getting a chiropractic adjustment can actually help you get better rest?
Below, we explore five ways proper spinal alignment from chiropractic care can improve your sleep and your overall well-being.
Relieves Muscle Pain and Tension
Spinal misalignment can cause pain in your neck and back, disrupting your sleep. Chiropractic adjustments can help alleviate these aches and pains, making falling asleep (and staying asleep) easier and more comfortable.
Promotes Nervous System Health
Did you know that your nervous system is an essential part of how your body manages sleep? And because your nervous system is housed in your spine, your spinal alignment directly impacts how effectively your nervous system functions. When your spine is properly aligned, it improves the flow of nerve communication, enabling your body to regulate rest and recovery more efficiently.
Eases Stress and Promotes Relaxation
Tension and misalignment in your body can exacerbate stress, making it more difficult to unwind and relax when it’s time to hit the sack. Chiropractic adjustments help release pressure in your muscles and joints, easing aches and pains and allowing your body to relax and shift into a calmer state that’s more conducive to a quality night’s sleep.
Improves Blood Flow
Healthy circulation is essential to getting a good rest, as it is responsible for delivering oxygen and nutrients to your brain and muscles while you sleep. By improving your spinal alignment and reducing muscle tension, chiropractic adjustments can enhance overall blood flow, which in turn helps support deep, restorative rest.
Encourages Hormonal Balance
Because your spinal health influences your nervous system, it also plays a role in regulating your hormones. When your nervous system is functioning correctly, it supports the natural production of sleep-regulating hormones like melatonin, helping you maintain consistent and balanced sleep patterns.
