According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, depression will effects as many as 5% of all of us at some point in our lives, and of that percentage nearly half of those will also experience some type of anxiety disorder.
While many resort to prescription medication to manage their anxiety and depression, there is a growing number of people that are seeking a more natural, holistic approach to managing these conditions.
Our moods are controlled regulated by body chemistry. Our body chemistry is controlled regulated by our nervous system.
Chiropractic spinal adjustments that will correct pinched nerves actually have their greatest effect on regulating the brain and the nervous system.
