Chiropractic Boosts Immune System Cells

Chiropractors generally aren't allowed to claim that their manipulations help anything but back problems. But acljusting the spine also adjusts nerve flow from (he brain, and that nerve flow governs all of the body's functions. It's not surprising, therefore, that research often shows chiropractic adjustments affecting more than just the back. For example, this study looked at certain immune system cells, and found that they were stronper in several ways after patients had had their spines adjusted. Those same differences did not show up in patients who'd been "sham treated" (physically manipulated but not adjusted), nor in those who just had their soft-tissues worked on. P. C.
