“How did I ever get into this mess?” Or “I never had this before!” Apart from the occasional accident, which happens to us from time to time, the majority of health issues which arise in our life are due to neglect and our lack of personal responsibility. The good news is you can take charge of your health, but no one is going to do it for you. It’s all up to you.
Pay Attention to the Body’s Warning Signals
The first step in recognizing that your health may be off track is to pay attention to your aches and pains. Pain has a purpose. Generally, it serves as a warning system. Like a warning light on the dashboard, pain in a particular area of your body is telling you that you’ve gone too far. You’ve exceeded a limit. Something needs attention. You have to change something you’re doing.
The Problem of Masking
Some people pop pain relievers and continue on their way, oblivious to the fact that their body is trying to tell them something. While pain relievers may offer temporary relief, they only mask the underlying cause of an issue. If you ignore those warning lights, your car will overheat. Your engine could seize up. Or you could run out of gas. The same thing will happen to you if you ignore your pain.
The Role of Chiropractic in Promoting Optimal Health
Chiropractic care isn’t about getting rid of symptoms. When you only address symptoms, the cause remains. Dr. Fitz is specially trained to reduce nerve interference so your body can heal and return to a state of ease. If you’re in pain, it might be a good time for a spinal check-up. Recharge your body’s “battery” naturally, and your pain could soon be a thing of the past.
