Hormones are directly related to many ongoing functions, including respiration, metabolism, and sleep. Therefore, functional medicine with our team at Nichols Chiropractic in Manhattan, KS, is a great way to achieve optimal health. Learn more about this.

Chiropractic Adjustments

Many people have played the telephone game in school, where one person passes along a word or message. It is then passed from one person to the next until it reaches the last person in the group. This game typically has two purposes: to build listening skills and point out how easily something can be passed on incorrectly.

Think of your hormones in a similar manner. The spinal column houses the spinal cord responsible for transmitting messages and ensuring your body functions properly. That includes the functions of your hormones.

When the spinal column is in proper shape, those messages can be transmitted properly, keeping your hormones balanced. However, when there is an issue in the spinal column, it’s like a person passing along the wrong word or sentence when playing the telephone game. The endocrine system gets the wrong message, and the hormones aren’t produced properly.

This is where chiropractic adjustments come in with hormone treatment. By restoring proper spinal column alignment, we can help ensure that the correct messages aren’t sent throughout your body.

Lifestyle and Nutrition Guidance

Chiropractic adjustments are just one portion of functional medicine in hormone treatment. Restoring the alignment of your spine helps get your hormones back on track, but what you do outside of our office is just as critical.

Everything you eat and drink can impact your hormonal balance, as can stress. Additionally, a lack of exercise can impede the proper function of the body, which, of course, affects your hormonal balance.

These factors are keys to success, we provide recommendations for nutrition, stress management, and more. We will also share specific stretches and exercises to help you achieve optimal hormonal balance daily.
