3 Reasons to Seek Chiropractic Care for Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis is a diseases that that affects the immune system.  It causes the body to attack myelin, or the fatty substance around the nerve fibers.  Myelin is necessary for the brain to send messages to other parts of the body and to receive them from other body systems.  When the myelin is damaged, messages are slowed down or even interrupted, causing the symptoms we see in multiple sclerosis.  Being under care with a Rochester Hills chiropractor can help manage MS symptoms.

 

It Is Natural and Safe

There is no known cure for multiple sclerosis, but there are ways to slow down the progression of the disease and manage the day to day symptoms.  Many people affected by MS turn to medication.  The problem with medication is that is only provides short-term relief, and it doesn’t actually fix the issues—it just covers them up.  Medication also comes with a risk of several uncomfortable side effects.  Chiropractic care, however, has been shown to provide relief from symptoms without the risk of harmful side effects.  It is a natural and safe solution for managing your multiple sclerosis.

 

It Gets to the Root Cause

Multiple sclerosis is a disease that attacks the central nervous system.  It affects the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerve.  Those with MS often suffer from loss of muscle control and balance, blurry vision, pain, and various other symptoms. The progression of this disease is different for everyone.  Some may experience only mild symptoms while others have severe symptoms that affect their daily lives and may even require assistance performing simple, everyday tasks.  Chiropractic care focuses on spinal health to improve the function of the central nervous system.  Dr. Brendan Shanahan and Dr. Thomas Madigan address the root issues of MS.  Spinal misalignments can cause nerve interference that affects how the brain communicates with the rest of the body.  This can affect symptoms of MS.  However, spinal adjustments will remove nerve dysfunction, allowing to body to communicate better, decreasing symptoms and even slowing down or stopping the progression of MS.
