The respiratory system works with the circulatory system to provide oxygen and to remove the waste products of metabolism.

A growing body of research is showing the link between spinal structure and the role of chiropractic in respiratory health and function.

Hyperkyphosis is often associated with adverse health consequences including impaired physical function, pain and disability, impaired pulmonary function, and increased mortality.

Autonomic nervous system dysfunction likely plays a role in chronic upper airway inflammatory disease.

Further investigation may lead to a better understanding of autonomic nervous system dysfunction in these disorders and hence, opportunities for innovative solutions.

A study of respiratory dysfunction in chronic neck pain patients demonstrated a strong association between an increased forward head posture and decreased respiratory strength.

83% of the participants reported improvements in lung function and exercise performance following spinal adjustment procedures.

Chiropractor helping ease pain of pregnancy and delivery.

The science of chiropractic was founded on the premise that a properly functioning nervous system is the foundation of health, and that the structural integrity of the spinal column must be maintained in order to facilitate optimal nervous system transmission and communication.

More women are discovering the many benefits associated with chiropractic care during pregnancy as well as labor and delivery. Chiropractic care improved the quality of life for pregnant patients in a recent study.

The authors noted that approximately 76% of chiropractors practicing in the United States provide chiropractic adjustments to pregnant women to address pregnancy-related complaints, and to some extent “wellness care.”

57% of their nurse-midwife responders recommended chiropractic to their pregnant patients to address pregnancy-related issues.

Dr. Irvin Henderson, studied the effect of chiropractic adjustments on labor and delivery, reporting that women who received chiropractic adjustments in their third trimester were able to carry and deliver their child with much more comfort.

Regular adjustments can make pregnancy less stressful and delivery less uncomfortable. Chiropractic treatment can continue safely until the day of delivery. By encouraging regular chiropractic and maternal self-care patient’s probability of a successful natural delivery.

Chiropractic care during pregnancy can provide benefits for women who are pregnant. Potential benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy include:
Maintaining a healthier pregnancy.
Controlling symptoms of nausea.
Reducing the time of labor.
Reducing time of delivery
Relieving back, neck, or joint pain.
Prevent potential cesarean delivery.

Forward head posture (FHP) is the anterior positioning of the cervical spine and is commonly referred to as “Text Neck”.

Negative effects include cervical dysfunction, muscle, joint, and neural system sensitivity as well as a significant contributing factor in a variety of health conditions.

Forward head posture leads to long term muscle strain, disc herniations, arthritis, and pinched nerves.

Head in a forward posture can add up to thirty pounds of abnormal leverage on the cervical spine. This can pull the entire spine out of alignment. For every inch of forward head posture, it can increase the weight of the head on the spine by an additional ten pounds.


People with uncorrected forward head posture can potentially suffer chronic or unpleasant conditions such as irritated nerves and blood vessels, thoracic outlet syndrome, muscle and tissue pain, syndromes like fibromyalgia, chronic strains, early degeneration, and arthritis.

Do you know someone suffering from "text neck?" We can help! Please call (719) 359-9947 to schedule an appointment.

WE HELP INJURED WORKERS

Decreased on-the-job productivity and employee absence because of health results in significant costs to employees above and beyond medical spending.

Posture related issues in the workplace result in 34% of all lost workday injuries and illnesses.

Non-neutral postures can pull and stretch tendons, blood vessels, and nerves over ligaments or bone where they can become pinched or restricted.

Spinal joint dysfunction affects brain response, accuracy, and performance.

Worker's compensation studies in multiple states indicate a 45-55% saving in overall costs when treatments are provided by a chiropractor instead of a traditional practitioner.

42.7% of workers who first saw a surgeon ended up in surgery, as opposed to only 1.5% of those who first saw a chiropractor.
The most recent and better-designed studies suggest that when chiropractic is utilized in the workplace, it not only reduces the immediate cost of an episode of care but reduces the recurrence of subsequent bouts of chronic conditions.

Please give us a call at (719) 359-9947 to schedule an appointment.

Yours truly,
Patrick Noel, DC

Running is one of the most common forms of exercise but with extensive exercise comes the risk of injury. Runners of all types, from the casual jogger to an elite athlete, can benefit from chiropractic care.

A Canadian research team included chiropractic care in the rehabilitation program of sixteen injured female long-distance runners.

Not only did these runners recover quickly, but seven of them actually scored a "personal best" performance while under chiropractic care.

A landmark research study evaluated the effects that chiropractic adjustments may have on reaction times.

There was a marked improvement for the group that received adjustments over the group that received nothing but rest.

The group that received chiropractic adjustments showed a decrease in reaction time of 97 milliseconds, representing a 14.8% faster reaction time.

Olympic Champion Usain Bolt, the fastest man alive, utilizes chiropractic care not only to perform better but to prevent injury and maximize recovery from his intense training and competing.

A study involving 17 middle distance runners showed that when chiropractic care was performed on a treatment group, they showed significantly greater hip extension ability after chiropractic care than did the control group.
Are you a runner? Let's get you adjusted. Please call (719) 359-9947 to schedule an appointment.
