Understanding the Complexities of Anxiety
Anxiety is caused by various factors, including past experiences, traumas, as well as financial worries, psychological stress, and negative thinking.
36.9 percents of people with anxiety disorders are seeking care.
Most people muscle through their anxiety without addressing underlying causes, putting them at a high risk for depression, mental breakdowns, substance use, and suicidal thoughts.
How Chiropractic Cares for Anxiety
It's important to recognize the close relationship between our mental and physical well-being. The connection becomes evident when we observe how chronic pain sufferers have a higher risk of developing conditions like depression. The impact of the nervous system on mental health is particularly intriguing.
The spine, which houses the most critical nerve pathways in the body, can be significantly affected by its curvature. Subluxations, or abnormal curves of the spine, can exert pressure on the nerves, potentially leading to various problems.
This relationship can create a cycle where anxiety, for example, can lead to physical manifestations such as muscle tension, further obstructing nerve pathways, and potentially worsening the anxiety. Breaking this cycle involves finding ways to relax the muscles and restore normal nerve function.
