Your Spine’s Hidden Role in Stress Relief
A surprising number of patients come into the office with unresolved stress as a complicating factor. The additional clinical benefit of releasing stress stored in the body with Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) is a breakthrough in resolving previously difficult cases.
Unresolved stress involves the mind, emotions, and physical body. The chronic, unresolved stress response often starts early in life and continues over a prolonged period.
The NET process is remarkably effective at resolving physiologically stored, emotionally charged neuro-emotional complexes, or NECs. An NEC is an unresolved stress pattern. An example of an unresolved stress pattern might be when you attend your ten-year high school reunion, and you see your first love who broke up with you without explanation and the tears start to flow because it still hurts. NET releases the hurt within the memory.
NET is a breakthrough methodology with the proven ability to release unresolved stress and has the potential to transform healthcare.
The Link Between Digestion and Spinal Health
Your spine influences much more than your posture—it may also affect how your organs function. Nerves that help control digestion pass through the mid-back region of your spine. When spinal motion becomes restricted, those nerve messages can get disrupted, sometimes contributing to bloating, sluggish digestion, or general abdominal discomfort.
Chiropractic adjustments aim to restore motion and ease interference so your body can function at its best—from head to gut. When nerve communication flows freely, your digestive system can better coordinate processes like enzyme release, muscle contraction, and nutrient absorption.
Combined with mindful eating, proper hydration, and gentle movement, supporting your spinal health can help your digestive system work more efficiently. Listening to your body’s signals, eating slowly, and maintaining regular chiropractic check-ins all work together to keep things moving comfortably. A well-aligned spine truly supports overall wellness—even after mealtime!
Why Balance Starts with Your Spine
Good posture isn’t just about standing tall—it’s about staying steady. Your spine is your body’s central support column, helping distribute weight evenly and keeping you balanced as you move through daily life. Even small spinal misalignments disrupt nerve signals throwing off your equilibrium, affecting coordination and increasing your risk of slips or falls, especially as you age.
Feeling out of balance? Try these simple behaviors:
- Stand on one foot while brushing your teeth.
- Take short (slow) walks on uneven ground to challenge your stabilizer muscles.
- Check your posture at your desk—your ears should line up with your shoulders.
Chiropractic care focuses on maintaining proper spinal alignment, which helps your brain and body communicate effectively. This improved connection supports better body awareness, stability, and confidence in your movements.
Whether you’re walking the dog, gardening, or practicing yoga, balance truly begins with your spine!
