Bacteria & Viruses

Your primary defense against bacteria and viruses in your body is your immune system, which is much more powerful than any flu shot. But when your stress hormones go up, your immune system goes down. Because when you begin to mobilize all this energy for some threat in your external environment, real or imagined, you rob the energy in your internal environment for growth and repair as well as for defense against sickness and disease. So if you keep turning on the fight or flight response, you keep turning on your sympathetic nervous system more than it was designed to. You are mobilizing all this energy because of chronic stress, and you are drawing from this invisible field of vital energy around your body, and you are turning it into chemistry. And if you keep doing that, the field around your body shrinks, causing you to be more susceptible to illness, muscle strains, and a host of other health problems. Chiropractic reverses this process by undoing the effects of stress, allowing your immune system to work more at optimum so you can heal and repair more effectively.
