Allergy Sufferers Chiropractic Can Bring Wellness El Paso, TX.

40% of people struggle with allergies! The demand for treatment is at an all-time high. However, there is still no quick-fix when it comes to treating allergies.

There are options, but many do not work right or are as effective as we would like them to be—and the ones that do usually have side effects that can make them undesirable.

Chiropractic offers a healthy natural alternative to standard medical treatment. By optimizing your general health, chiropractic helps your body better cope with allergens on the spot and years to come.

Allergies are what?

When the human body encounters a substance that it is allergic to, the immune system is triggered and attempts to attack the allergen in much the same way it would a substance that is truly harmful. The problem is, the allergen is not harmful in and of itself—but the immune system reaction can be harmful, or at least highly unpleasant.

For example, if you are allergic to pollen, your immune system will attempt to attack the pollen you inhale. Your body will produce immunoglobulin, leading to the release of histamines. The histamines that surge through your system cause blood vessels to dilate, fluid to increase in the space surrounding your cells, and your blood pressure to drop. A runny nose and sneezing typically follow, and symptoms can become even more extreme, like nausea and vomiting. It all seems like overkill for a bit of pollen, but there is little you can do to avoid it.

It is possible to be allergic to just about anything, but there are certain substances that are common allergens. These include:

  • Pollen
  • Mold
  • Pet Dander
  • Weeds
  • Dust Mites
  • Grass

Allergies and Chiropractic Wellness

Allergies are not something that can be cured, but they can be treated in a way that lessens their impact on your life. Standard medical care offers a variety of treatments for allergies, some more effective than others.

Many over-the-counter allergy medications are available, each with its own potential side effects. You can also seek an appointment with an allergy specialist, who can determine exactly what you are allergic to and offer stronger treatment options—but these also carry potential side effects, and as with over-the-counter options, may or may not be effective.

Optimized Nervous System Function

Chiropractic care approaches allergies more holistically. One of the main ideas behind chiropractic is that the human body can heal itself in most cases if the conditions are right.

It is the job of your chiropractor to create the ideal conditions for healing. By optimizing spinal alignment, it is possible to improve nervous system function and thereby improve the body’s response to all types of stimuli—including allergens.

Lifestyle Options

Chiropractic is about more than spinal adjustments. A holistic approach means optimizing every aspect of your health, which includes diet and exercise.

Your chiropractor can look closely at your diet and other lifestyle factors and help you identify changes that may lessen your allergy symptoms. By improving your diet and adding exercises that add strength and mobility, you will change the composition of your body in fundamental ways. These changes often lead to surprising improvements in the way you react to a variety of substances.
