3 Benefits of Nutritional Counseling in Chiropractic Care
Whether you’re been injured, are suffering from a chronic condition, or just aren’t as healthy as you’d like to be, nutritional counseling can play an important role. Dr. Wilson and Dr. Hinrichs at Hastings Family Chiropractic in Hastings, NE explain just three reasons chiropractors add nutritional counseling to patients’ treatment plans below.
Improves General Health and Wellness
The human body relies on specific vitamins and nutrients to work at its best. Nutritional counseling from your chiropractor can ensure you take in the necessary types and amounts of food that you need for your health. This can result in many health benefits, including but not limited to:
- Better mood
- More energy
- Improved memory and mental clarity
- Reduced risk of illnesses and medical conditions, such as diabetes, hypertension, heart problems, and more
- Improved quality of sleep
Many people know that these are benefits of eating healthy, but attaining the right type of healthy for your needs can be confusing. That’s because not everyone needs the same amount of every vitamin and nutrient.
For example, professional athletes will not have the same exact nutritional needs as busy moms or office workers. They’ll need more in some areas and less in others. Nutritional guidance from a chiropractor ensures you get the right amount for your body and your lifestyle.
Enhances Recovery
Food can be wonderfully medicinal. When you’re injured, hurting, or sick, specific foods can help fight inflammation and fuel your body for healing. By eating the right foods for your needs, you can get better faster and the treatment you receive from your chiropractor can work even better.
Helps With Weight Management
Carrying extra weight can put unnecessary pressure on the body, especially your joints and spine. It’s one of the various underlying causes of lower back pain due to misalignment and herniated discs, as well as knee pain and hip pain. Nutritional guidance from your chiropractor can help you sustain a healthy weight, ensuring that your body doesn’t have to support any undue pressure or wear and tear.
