The Importance of Spinal Care

​
​Doctor of Chiropractic, Camille Berger, visited New Beginnings to discuss the benefits of visiting a chiropractor and the overall importance of proper spinal care.  Chiropractic care allows your body to function as God intended, for you to live a life free of pain in order to maximize your full potential.

​The spine is the controller of the entire body as it is the first system to receive signals from the brain on how to operate.  Receiving chiropractic care can lead to all-over bodily benefits like increased fertility, arthritis relief, and improved sleep, so seeing a chiropractor is not limited to those with ailments of the spine.

​Our lives cannot be put on hold when we experience back pain. For this reason, many people are in the habit of popping pills to temporarily bandage their suffering.  These spurts of pain relief allow us to function regularly for a few hours, but in actuality pushing through back pain is probably doing further spinal damage and can even lead to irreversible spinal misalignment along with a plethora of physical handicaps.  When self-healing measures like massage and back cracking are attempted by yourself or other non professionals, further spinal damage is almost inevitable.  When cracking an injured spine, the misaligned spinal vertebra (bone) allows the normal vertebrae above and below it more flexibility to compensate for the misaligned vertebra’s inability to move properly. This can lead to extensive spinal trauma. 

​Back pain may suddenly go away. Chances are high that the spinal problem has not magically healed itself, but instead the brain has blocked pain receptors to the traumatized area in order to allow the body to better function.  Because of our brains’ incredible ability to give us pain relief, it’s advised to begin seeing a chiropractor as soon as back pain appears due to the harmful consequences working through pain can cause.  Misaligned spinal vertebrae may even take years to show symptoms in the body such as pain or postural problems. Therefore, it is highly recommended to begin incorporating a visit to the chiropractor into your annual doctor checkup schedule as a preventative measure.
