Making sure you stay well adjusted will help you stay healthy. Especially during times of stress, don’t let your spine get on your nerves!

Our spines get beat up during our lifetime. Our spine protects the most vital part of our body, our nerve system. When the spine is shifted or not moving properly it puts pressure on the spinal nerves and reduces our health, creates secondary conditions like pain and reduced Neuro-immune function. For this reason, we want to make sure our spine is regularlychecked and adjusted if necessary by a trained Chiropractor. #neuroimmune #chiropractic

What does Health really mean? It’s right there in the word, heal. Healing is the regular and normal production and growth of new cells all over the body. This is a continual process that happens from conception (when your parents made you ) until death; it is programmed by our DNA to continually heal. We are constantly healing and growing new tissues; even our bones completely replace themselves every seven years. Wow!... All that is needed is a proper nerve supply from the brain to the body, dietary nutrients, movement, and the proper environment. Or, as Dr. James Chestnut put it, Eat well, Move well, Think well. These things need to happen simultaneously for a period of time to achieve and maintain health. Sounds simple right? Then why are so many people suffering from poor health and disease?

It's November!!! And that means that for those of us living in San Jose, we can no longer synthesize Vitamin D from sun exposure. From November to March, as the sun lowers in the sky, if you are above the 37th parallel (Los Angeles) you are no longer able to synthesize Vitamin D from sun exposure. This is because the sun is lower in the atmosphere, thereby reducing the UVB rays that are responsible for synthesizing Vitamin D. Check out this article for more details on Vitamin D, why it is so important as we head into this flu season, and how to make sure your levels are tip-top... Hint pick up some vitamin D supplements on your next visit.

Today, we are going to talk about the Emotional stressors that impact our health. It all pretty much boils down to how we feel. What I mean by that is, how we feel, our emotional state dictates our self-talk. This can be positive or negative. If I feel good, I’m going to think good thoughts, do things that are healthy, and pretty much continue to feel good and think well. Where most people falter, is that they don’t know how to enter this good emotional state of health, where... they think good positive healthy thoughts, feeling good, and being healthy. Our minds are really good at finding faults, problems, and looking for negative things. This is how we’ve survived for thousands of years, and stayed safe, but we weren’t necessarily thriving. Thinking negative thoughts, feeling bad, having negative self-talk promotes an unhealthy physical state, and leads to self-imposed stress on the nervous system. This in turn causes our bodies to suffer the effects from emotional stress, which can lead to disruption of our normal body functions, hormone production, and even promote dis-ease. We have all experienced a stomach ache when we are worried about a test, felt nauseous when anxious about speaking in public, felt faint when we have made a BIG mistake, or neck pain when we get stressed at work. Just imagine how your body responds over time to constant emotional stressors. There is however great news! This can be impacted by making a conscious decision. You can choose to feel good by making healthy choices, thereby leading to positive thoughts, actions, and feelings, which in turn promote good health. One easy way to do this is by physically moving your body by going for a walk. In ten minutes you’ll feel better, and that feeling can be the catalyst to continue to do and think positively, which improves your emotional and physical state towards health and wellness. If you are in need of more support for your mental and emotional wellness, give our community partners over at Uplift PsychologyGroup a call. They provide individual therapy, couples therapy, and parent support for those with children!

Today, we are focusing on a physical stress that is associated with cancer. Neruo-Structural Shifts. WHAT? The thing that is causing my back pain is related to cancer? Now, take a moment and think about your brain. Do you know what part helps to maintain homeostasis? It is your limbic system. And quite possibly, the most crucial part of your limbic system is your hypothalamus. The hypothalamus receives signals from all possible sources in the nervous system via your spine.... It is the center for collecting information about the internal well-being of your body. And this information is then used to control the production of your hormones.* So when your body is in a state of homeostasis, the exact amount of hormones you need at a given time are released into your bloodstream, and your body functions smoothly. However, when the control mechanism malfunctions, the results can be severe and even life-altering. With few exceptions, hormone deficiency or hormone excess is the result of pathologic manifestations in the neural pathways that supply the hypothalamus.** So, what does that mean to you? Well, a Neuro-Structural Shift in your spine and its resulting decrease in function may be a significant cause of hormone dysfunction and hormonal related health problems. Interference to your nervous system, especially in the upper neck, may produce a variety of symptoms, including diabetes insipidous, obesity, sexual dystrophy, somnolence, and loss of temperature control.*** The important take away here is that structural spinal integrity sets the foundation of good health, along with proper nutrition and avoiding harmful chemicals that are ever-present in our environment. https://www.platinumchiroca.com/back-pain-and-cancer/

Omega 3 fatty acids are essential fats that come from wild animals, the most abundant coming from wild caught salmon. Due to our contemporary lifestyles, almost everyone is deficient and should look into a high quality supplement.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. To us, what that really means is an opportunity to learn and educate about prevention. Did you know that 85% of breast cancer occurs in people who have no family history of breast cancer? That means that environment and lifestyle play a HUGE role. And that is good news because that means we can take action towards prevention from breast cancer and many other health issues that share common links. These are effects of our environment, ...lifestyles, and behaviors via the three essential categories for normal health, eating well, moving well, and thinking well. One avenue you can focus on is removing hormone disruptors from your home. Hormone disruptors are synthetic chemicals that can mimic hormones and interfere with or disrupt the delicate hormonal balance in our bodies. Check out more about hormone disruptors, how they impact your health, and how you can avoid them here: https://www.platinumchiroca.com/breast-cancer-awareness/

Health is the body’s constant desire to making new healthy cells through the innate intelligence. Our job is to facilitate and help give our body what it needs through movement, diet, and social connection to people and nature.

Immune System Tip # 2 Focus on Your Gut Health By now everybody has heard of gut health and how important it is to our overall health and immune system. This is because there is an important connection between your digestive system and your brain. What’s more, recent studies show that your brain affects your gut health and your gut affects your brain health. The communication system between your gut and brain is called the gut-brain axis. Your gut and your brain are connecte...d physically and biochemically. The Vagus Nerve is this connection. Vagus means wandering and so does this nerve, which emanates from your brain and wanders throughout your digestive system sending messages to and from your digestive system to the brain. This nerve is controlled by the parasympathetic part of the nervous system, which is what we measure in our office with the Heart Rate Variability test. When you are in balance, your body has the best adaptability, which includes making hormones that help you feel more connected, at ease, less anxious, less depressed, and less sluggish. The most important task we have here at Platinum Chiropractic is improving your structure and balancing your nervous system through Neuro-Structural Correction.
