Q: How can chiropractic treatment improve immune function? A: The interworking of the spine (messengers) can be linked to nearly every function in the body, including the immune system.The spinal cord houses nerves that act as messengers. Your body cannot properly function without these messengers. Nerve impulses travel from your spinal cord and carry messages to your brain, as well as to other vital organs in your body. When your spine is damaged, the nerve impulses cannot properly and efficiently coordinate messages to the brain, which would normally alert that an immune response is needed. But a heathy spine reacts promptly by effectively carrying the messengers up the spine and to the brain, whereby the messengers then can indicate a foreign invader has approached, threated, or entered your body, and thus an adequate immune reaction is triggered. Spinal misalignments are stressful to the body. These stresses cause abnormal changes which lead to a poorly coordinated immune response. However, chiropractic adjustments boost the coordinated responses of the nervous and immune system.
