November 2019 Healthy News: Brain Care Tips from Amelia Chiropractic Clinic
The brain is a amazing organ. It is like a computer for the body taking information in and sending information out every second of every day for each of Fernandina Beach human. Pain changes its function to safeguard the body. In chronic low back pain, pain the Amelia Chiropractic Clinic treats every day, the brain’s dorsolateral prefrontal cortex diminishes in addition to brain gray matter reduction and cognitive ability impairment. Treating chronic pain is found to help the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex thicken after treatment. Research like this suggests that treating chronic pain can restore normal brain function. (1) Spinal manipulation helps chronic low back pain sufferers with their anticipation of pain and fear of movement. Using MRI to study the brain function in such patients, researchers verified that spinal manipulation has an effect on pain, expected pain, fear of exercise and movement as well as other related brain responses. (2) Further, chiropractic spinal adjustments were found to possibly adjust central processing of pain and unpleasantness. (3) Certainly, research in this area of spinal manipulation effects on the brain and its function is advancing. It suggests that the changes occur in brain function with a call for more analysis of said changes. (4) The potential for spinal manipulation to influence such issues is very exciting to your Fernandina Beach chiropractor at Amelia Chiropractic Clinic and our Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients like you!
