Sleeping for Happiness
Sleep is one of the most powerful ways to influence your well-being, along with diet and exercise. Not sleeping enough, or not getting enough restful sleep is linked to depression, obesity, hypertension and cancer, while sleeping adequately and restfully is linked to high levels of mental and physical performance and a host of other healthful benefits:
Longer life
Improved memory
Lower levels of inflammation
Higher athletic performance
Better cognitive function
Healthier weight levels and less fluctuation
Less stress
Unfortunately, more Americans than ever are suffering from insomnia and other sleep disorders. Perhaps it is a side-effect of our fast-paced lifestyles and constant exposure to electronic stimulation. As rates of sleeplessness increase, so to does the amount of people seeking over-the-counter or prescription remedies. These pills are often linked to a host of side-effects that can affect your quality of life in other ways.
At Associates in Chiropractic, we are here to help you sleep better the natural way. Often, all it takes is a simple lifestyle adjustment to effect a whole new world of sleep: cutting out the caffeine, establishing a bed time routine and avoiding electronic stimulation right before bed can help you get to sleep and stay asleep. If this is not enough, we also provide you with chiropractic care that ensures your body is in the right shape for sleep.
Chiropractic care works to improve sleep in threefold ways: by regulating blood flow and circulation, correcting misaligned vertebrae, and regulating the nervous system which improves communication between the brain and body. When sleeping, quality is just as important as quantity. There is no value to be placed upon waking up feeling rested and refreshed after a week of hard work.
