How Family First Chiropractic Improves Gut Health | Chiropractor in West Omaha, NE
Hey there, I’m Dr. Jeremiah Sample from Family First Chiropractic. Today, I want to share how chiropractic care can help alleviate digestive issues you might be experiencing. Did you know that in the U.S. alone, there are over 130 million doctor visits annually related to gut health? Let’s discuss how we can help mitigate these issues and improve your digestive well-being.
The Initial Examination: Understanding Your Health History
At Family First Chiropractic, the most important step is your initial examination, which includes a comprehensive history of not just your current digestive issues, but also past problems. We’ll explore childhood health to recent changes to help us determine which tests are necessary.
- Range of Motion & Orthopedic Testing: Assessing how your gut is functioning and impacting your overall body.
- X-rays: Identifying what’s happening with your spine and bowels.
With this information, we can pinpoint what’s going wrong and how to address it effectively. We’ve already helped thousands of patients find relief from their gut issues, and we’re ready to help you too.
Addressing the Nervous System: Vertebral Subluxation
The next step is examining your spine to see if there’s any nervous system component affecting your digestion. Vertebral subluxation can put pressure on the nervous system, disrupting the brain-gut connection and leading to conditions like GERD and IBS.
Personalized Treatment Plan: Adjustments & Lifestyle Modifications
Once we identify the issue:
- Chiropractic Adjustments: Alleviate pressure on the nervous system, improving the brain-gut connection and promoting long-lasting healing.
- Lifestyle Factors: We’ll evaluate lifestyle habits like smoking, alcohol consumption, and processed foods that may contribute to your digestive issues.
- Dietary Adjustments: Increase fiber intake, whether it’s soluble fiber to slow down gut motility or insoluble fiber to speed things up.
Exercises & Additional Support
We’ll also recommend exercises to help stimulate intestinal movement, reduce gas and bloating, and improve overall digestion. By incorporating these lifestyle changes, you can maintain better gut health and enjoy a healthier digestive system.
