There is no getting around the fact that, for most of us at least, losing weight is hard. It can seem that we only have to look at a slice of cake to put on weight, but when we try to shift the pounds, we need to put in plenty of exercise and watch every morsel we consume to see even a tiny difference in the scales. Nevertheless, weight loss is something that is extremely important. Obesity is a significant problem in the United States, and the condition has serious and potentially deadly consequences for our health. By losing weight you could avoid complex and debilitating health problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, and more, and instead enjoy a healthier and longer life.
Often people who are obese and desperate to lose weight explore many different ways of doing so, from dieting and exercising to the extremes of surgery. However, one weight loss solution that is often overlooked is visiting your chiropractor.
Weight Gain and Back Pain Relationship
If you suffer from chronic pain, you’re more likely to gain weight. The reason behind it is that you become less physically active, have poor sleep patterns, and eat more to gain comfort. It’s unclear whether the pain or the weight gain comes first, but there’s no doubt that these two often exist together.
Back injuries can contribute to weight gain. People working in construction often get back injuries, which forces them to take at least a six-month break to recover. This time period is enough for them to gain a notable increase in weight, especially if they neglect to do physical activities as well.
The Brain/Body Connection
Your brain is your command center. It tells your body what to do by way of nerves that travel down your spinal cord into your fingers and toes. Nerves throughout your body provide information back to your brain about position, sensations, and pain. Your spine protects this highway of information being sent to and from your brain and body. Any interruption of these signals can cause a traffic jam, which prevents your body from working at its optimal level. This can result in lower resistance to disease and can cause an overall loss of health.
Can A Chiropractor Really Help Me To Lose Weight?
Many people are surprised to learn that regular visits to a chiropractor can not only enable you to lose weight, but they can also be instrumental in helping you to keep the weight off and live a longer, healthier life. This is because chiropractors don’t only focus on spinal health. While they specialize in realigning the spine, which helps to improve problems such as back and leg pain, chiropractors are also educated in the arts of rehabilitative exercise, massage, and nutrition counseling. They do this because these therapies have also been shown to be effective in helping our bodies to manage themselves better from the inside.
Chiropractors pay attention to the nerves that control muscles and the impact nerves have on the mobility of joints and bones associated with them. Chiropractic adjustments restore the function of the nerves by moving the bones of the spine into proper alignment, removing any interference, and clearing the path for the body to heal itself.
A Chiropractor’s Holistic Approach
Chiropractic care helps the body on a more holistic level. Its goal goes beyond giving immediate relief from your pain. It aids the body in its healing process and makes it better at managing itself from the inside, making it less likely for you to develop more health issues.
When you’re visiting a chiropractor, they’ll examine your spinal column and check for misalignments. These can hinder your central nervous system, which makes it harder for your brain and body to communicate with each other. It worsens your body’s functions, including your metabolic system which hinders your ability to burn fat.
As your chiropractor performs adjustments through manual manipulation techniques, your spine returns to its normal alignment. The vital communication between your brain and body goes back to normal and so do your metabolic functions.
Benefits of Chiropractic Adjustments to Your Physical Fitness
Your adjustment doesn’t immediately fix your back pain permanently. It does offer a great deal of relief in most cases. Pain relief and management take several visits to accomplish.
Here are some of the weight loss benefits of visiting a chiropractor:
It Improves Nerve Communication
Your spine’s nerves have communication pathways that control your hunger and fullness. When you adjust your spine, it opens up these pathways and relieves the stress of pain. It helps you know better when you need to eat and when you should stop.
It Makes Exercise Easier For You
When your body hurts, you’re less motivated to hit the gym and lift weights, and run on the treadmill. Forcing yourself to exercise through the pain means that you’ll do a fraction of the intensity and duration of the workouts you usually do. Chiropractic adjustments help you relieve your back pains, which means that you can go back to your workouts and burn more calories.
It Makes Your Daily Movements More Comfortable
Working out is a great way to lose weight, but all your daily activities contribute to it as well. When you start walking less and sitting more instead of doing chores due to pain, an adjustment can help. It brings you relief and makes you more active in general.
The more you move throughout the day, the more calories you burn. On average, you can get rid of up to 350 calories daily with all these small movements.
Help Tone the Muscles
The body is composed of a variety of soft tissue, including muscles, tendons, ligaments, and connective tissue. Connective tissue is the structure that connects, supports, and separates other tissues and organs of the body. When connective tissue becomes loose, we refer to it as adipose tissue.
This loose tissue stores energy in the form of fat cells, which cushions the muscles. While the body needs connective tissue, the fatty composition of adipose tissue makes it difficult to tone the muscle underneath. Chiropractic adjustments may help to get rid of adipose tissue, which can lead to better muscle tone. Not only will this show in a workout, but it will also make it more difficult for the body to put weight back on after it has been lost.
It Reduces Your Stress-Eating Habits
An average person deals with stress by eating food to get some comfort. When your back hurts, your body becomes stressed. It increases your desire to eat junk food like chips to make you forget about your pains.
Once you start visiting a chiropractor, you can focus on making healthy foods and picking out proper snacks. You can motivate yourself to start taking walks after dinner instead of sitting in front of the television with a bowl of chips.
Benefits of Healthy Weight Loss
Maintaining your weight at a healthy level can improve your life in many ways. It makes you less likely to develop illnesses like heart problems and diabetes. Here are some of the benefits of losing excess weight:
It Lowers Your Blood Pressure
If you’re overweight, your heart’s health is at risk because it’s strained more. It causes your blood vessels to get damaged, which results in possible loss of eyesight. Not doing anything can lead to fatal strokes.
Losing weight relieves you from the strain. It helps lower blood pressure, which is crucial when you’re undergoing a weight-loss program or diet.
It Improves Your Cholesterol Levels
Overweight people have higher levels of bad cholesterol. If you do a low-fat diet, you can lose weight faster and shed the excess low-density lipoprotein. With a healthy cholesterol level, your risk for cardiovascular disease becomes lower.
It Makes You More Mobile
Losing excess weights makes you move easier, allowing you to have more energy to do exercises and other tasks. Without the excess fats slowing you down, it becomes more rewarding for you to play with your kids or your dogs.
It Makes You More Confident
When you work out and lose weight, you become more confident about how you appear to other people. You feel great about yourself because you worked hard getting into shape. You’re more comfortable in social situations, making it easier for you to form meaningful connections and do your work.
What Can I Expect During My Visit?
Your first visit will begin with a conversation about your health history and details about your current complaint. Next, our chiropractor will perform an examination that includes easy instructions about moving your spine or problem area(s), analyzing your posture, and finding out if any of your joints are not moving well.
Before you leave our office, you should know what they plan to do at your next appointment, and what you will do at home before you meet them again. Each subsequent visit includes a discussion of how you’re feeling, progress with the prescribed home activities or exercises, answers to questions you may have, hands-on examination of your spine or problem area(s), and plans for the next visit. Your visits alongside healthier eating and exercising will help you reach your weight loss goals!
Moving Forward: Losing The Weight You Need.
Seeing our qualified chiropractors can improve your body’s functions but can also guide you in proper lifestyle choices for optimal results. The professionals at Garrow Wellness Center believe that effective chiropractic services will go above and beyond to ensure your future is healthy and happy.
