Contrary to how you may think, your body can heal itself from most ailments, given that it has the best opportunity to do so! Never has a plaster healed a paper cut, your body did all of that by itself, from the inside, and the same goes from organs and cells and tissues and bones and nerves and muscles…the list is endless!
But why does another person under the same roof as you, eating the same food and doing the same things, heal and recover fast, whilst you do not? The simple answer is ‘adaptability’, how well is your body adapting to the three stresses in life: physical stress; emotional stress; chemical stress. It’s not about how much of those stresses you have, it’s how well your body can cope with them neurologically! You can measure this using HRV (heart rate variability). This gives you a recovery score based on heart rate and breathing and indicates if your body is working in harmony on the inside, or in a fight or flight response. If your body is in fight or flight it may not heal as well, and so we need to look at your nervous system to ease your body into rest and recovery instead! This is done by looking at your diet, your emotional stress, your physical stress, but most importantly, the pressure/stress on your nervous system.
This is where Chiropractors come in handy; as far as I am aware, we are the only profession that looks to address the root cause of the problem and look at the body as a whole. If you want your nervous system to be calm and free, and get your body healing and feeling better, then I recommend you seek your local Chiropractors assistance.
Lots of love,
