Many arthritis pain sufferers experience a correlation between cold weather and an increase in symptoms. Their joints become more stiff, swollen, and painful as temperature drops. Research backs up these patient reports, with hospitalization for arthritis reaching its highest rates in the autumn.1
So many children suffer from chronic ear infections that this condition accounts for more than 35% of pediatrician visits in the United States.1 Surprisingly, while the infection develops within the inner ear, the root cause may be a subluxation, which is a “stuck” or misaligned vertebrae.
The information age has its own pressures and its own posture. Rather than carrying heavy physical burdens, we work under the weight of technology and adapt our habits and posture to the needs of our equipment. The vertebrae of our necks and spines are in one pose for so long that a subluxation develops.
All of us experience stress, whether from work, finances, family challenges, or life obstacles. Our bodies respond to stress by tensing up, causing stress-related back pain, vertebral subluxations, pinched nerves, and a tight, inflexible posture.
Inflammation contributes to healthy immune system function by creating increased blood flow, capillary dilation, and white blood cell activity.1 When an injury or infection is recognized, the affected area will become red, warm, painful, and swollen as a result. |
