Restoring the Balance

 

womens-issues-doctor-forest-lakeThe word “homeostasis” describes the body’s ability to maintain relatively stable internal conditions even though the outside world is constantly changing.

Homeostasis indicates a dynamic state of equilibrium or a balance in which internal conditions change and vary but always within relatively narrow limits.

Communication within the body is essential for homeostasis and is accomplished chiefly by the nervous and endocrine systems.

HOMEOSTASIS (ho’meo-o-sta’sis) a tendancy to stability in the normal body state internal environment. It is achieved by a system of control mechanisms activated by negative feedback.

Many of the most vital functions of the human body are influenced by the endocrine system, which consists of glands that secrete hormones, or chemical messengers into the bloodstream.

Fibromyalgia

The most common cause of chronic musculoskeletal pain and fatigue, Fibromyalgia affects 4% of the population. Disorders of the Central Nervous System are among the causes of Fibromyalgia. Dr. Gerard explains how Chirorpactic helps with Fibromyalgia –>

The dysfunctions of the CNS include pain perception problems, neurochemical imbalances, decrease in pain threshold, and inconsistent serotonin levels. Serotonin is a chemical that regulates mood, memory, and pain perception. Ongoing research indicates that chiropractic care may alleviate fibromyalgia. Subjects noted significant reduction in pain intensity, lessened fatigue, and improved sleep quality.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

No drug therapy…Many CFS sufferers experience chronic back and neck pain. Chiropractic care is known to alleviate such signs and symptoms by properly aligning the spine; chiropractors provide effective long-tern relief from CFS related conditions.

PMS

Spinal dysfunctions could be a cause of PMS. Tenderness of the neck and low back pain are commonly associated with PMS. Studies show a reduction and prevention of symptoms of PMS.

Infertility

Many studies have attributed chiropractic care with restoration of function and the ability to conceive. Evidence of vertebral misalignments of the spine interferes and impinges on the nerves of the body, directly effecting how the body communicates and functions.

Pregnancy

During pregnancy dramatic changes happen to mom’s posture and spinal function. Chiropractic adjustments have been known to shorten labors, lessen labor pain, and reduce back pain, especially low back pain throughout pregnancy

By far the best chiropractor I’ve ever used. They customize a plan just for you and don’t use a one size fits all approach. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else!! Thank you!!!

I have been experiencing low back pain for at least 10 rememberable years and decided on a whim to try chiropractic care at Lakewoods. I had never been to a chiropractor before so I had no expectations that it would work or not but after just my first adjustment I had instant relief for the first time in 10 years. I have since been super impressed with how everything has been explained to me and how my care plan has been formed. The staff are all very kind and have been very helpful as well!
