Those suffering from acid reflux and other digestive issues may find that chiropractic care can reduce or eliminate the problems causing digestive ailments. The spine does directly affect various organs of the body, and your stomach and digestion can be impacted by a spinal problem.
Many residents of Naperville and Plainfield suffer from acid reflux as well as chronic digestive problems. Chiropractic care goes beyond a back adjustment. In many cases, problems seemingly unrelated to your spine are indications that something is wrong elsewhere.
You probably already know that caffeine and other spicy foods can trigger acid reflux attacks, but acid reflux is the symptom, not the cause. Taking antacids or acid reducers tend to mask the symptom giving temporary relief.
Chiropractors know that the spine is a direct link to stomach and digestive system. Like a pinched nerve may cause pain in your arm or leg, a misaligned spine can contribute to acid reflux. Once again, the best way to find out if chiropractic care wil provide relief from acid reflux disease (ARD) is to try treatment for 30 days. Dr Tim Ericksonn invites Naperville and Plainfield acid relux sufferers to schedule an evaluation visit with his office. The solution to your acid reflux problem may be as simple as a few adjustments and diet management.
