Many people think of chiropractors as just back and neck doctors. Did you know regular adjustments can benefit your entire body? Chiropractors such as Dr. Chris McNeil focus on treating the spine, which is essential to the function of the central nervous system, which is responsible for every function in your body, including digestion. By improving the health of your central nervous system, you enable your digestive system to work better. Regular chiropractic treatments have been shown to relieve stomach pain, acid reflux, constipation and other digestive disorders.

How is my spine alignment related to my digestive tract?
If the vertebrae in the spine are improperly aligned, it can cause a misfire in the signals going to the nerves of the digestive system. The result can be many common digestive disorders, such as bloating, constipation, diarrhea and more.

Will having a back adjustment repair my chronic stomach issues?
With regular chiropractic adjustments, your body can restore nerve connections and communication to ideal levels. This can improve digestion and eliminate or reduce conditions like irregularity, nausea, general discomfort and more.

Is my back pain the reason for my stomach pain?
There are many reasons to have spinal pain and abdominal pain, including overeating, eating fatty foods and more serious concerns like autoimmune disorders and cancer. Misalignments in your spine certainly can lead to stomach pain. Most simultaneous occurrences of stomach and back pain are non-threatening and can be naturally remediated. Chiropractic treatment is a natural, holistic treatment that does not use medication. If the pain often recurs or does not subside, you should see your general practitioner for further evaluation.
