“The doctor said nothing is wrong!”

We’ve all been there. You have pain or something feels off, you get every imaging study, every test, every blood draw and they are still telling you that there is NOTHING wrong, according to the tests. You want to be grateful because there isn’t anything major showing up but at the same time, you know how you feel each day and you are sick of feeling like you’re crazy.

Well, news flash…you aren’t crazy. You are human.

There is a chance that as of today, nothing is structurally wrong. However, that does not discount or diminish how you are feeling. The issue could be something that is truly invisible and it is how your brain and nervous system is regulating your pain based on past injuries, traumas or events.

Injuries are imprinted into your nervous system and have a direct impact on how you experience pain ongoing if you do not give your brain different information.

We commonly hear patients say, “I came in because I was having back pain, but I have to tell you…not only is my back feeling better but other things are happening. I can now go to the bathroom my regularly, I’m sleeping better, etc.”

Is Chiropractic care "curing" these things? Not really. Chiropractic care is helping your nervous system to interpret things differently, re-teaching it to function properly, re-introducing new ranges of motion and new movement patterns. When your nervous system can talk to the rest of your body, you will be amazed at how it can start functioning properly!
