In this weeks video health tip, Dr. Samir Hajariwala, director of Crossroads Chiropractic, takes a look at the benefits of chiropractic adjustments for treating patients with insomnia.
Sleep is essential for the human body to develop and function healthily.
A recent paper published in the Journal of Sleep Medicine & Disorders suggested that some insomnia cases could be caused by complex chemical interactions in the brain resulting from subluxation.
A subluxation causes interference with the nervous system the major controller of all function in the body.
Treating patients with insomnia may require adjustments to correct the subluxation.
By addressing the subluxation, adjustments help correct the brain’s dopamine and serotonin levels, thereby providing possible relief from insomnia.
Adjustments can also address insomnia by improving other aspects of nervous system functioning, such as heart rate variability.
Along with adjustments, other treatments and lifestyle interventions may promote healthy sleep including reducing caffeine and sugar intake and adding stress management techniques, such as exercise or yoga.
