How Chiropractic Care Can Help Your Blood Pressure

How Chiropractic Care Can Help Your Blood Pressure

Regardless of race, age, or gender, anyone can develop high blood pressure. It is estimated that one in every four American adults have high blood pressure. High blood pressure increases the risk for heart disease and stroke, which are the first and third leading causes of death for Americans.  Most people try to address high blood pressure by taking medications. The problem with this approach is that it treats the effect, not the cause. The drug approach also subjects patients to serious side effects.  

Studies support a wellness approach to tackling the blood pressure dilemma. A study published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics examined the effects of chiropractic adjustments on high blood pressure. The study concluded that chiropractic adjustments were an effective and safe alternative to the medical model. The men and women who participated in the study and received chiropractic care experienced a significant decrease in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The individuals who were in the control group and the placebo group did not experience this same improvement. In another published study from the same journal, 75 people who suffered from high blood pressure received specific chiropractic adjustments. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased in the adjusted group. Also noted in that study was that the people with the highest pretreatment blood pressure experienced the greatest benefit!

5 Reasons Why Senior Citizens Should Receive Chiropractic Care

1. Pain relief: Chiropractors have the ability to fix the subluxations within the spine that cause pain and inflammation, without the use of medication.

2. Lower risk of falls: Chiropractic care is helpful in this area as it helps to minimize subluxations in the spine and helps patients learn to stretch and exercise to improve their balance and strength throughout their senior years.

3. Natural treatment: it is important to find a way to find relief without the need to take medication.

4. Help with chronic conditions: After four weeks of chiropractic care, these study participants experienced a decreased number of adverse events and had a higher quality of life.

5. Decreased Joint Degeneration:  Chiropractic care decreases spinal degeneration and other arthritic changes by normalizing the spinal alignment and reducing spinal stress.

Chiropractic Use Decreases Costs for Medicare Patients with Low Back Pain

One recent study found that older multiple-comorbid patients who used only chiropractic manipulative therapy during their chronic low back pain episodes had lower overall costs of care, shorter episodes and a lower cost of care per episode day than patients in the other treatment groups. Further, costs of care for the episode and per episode day were lower for patients who used a combination of chiropractic manipulative therapy and conventional medical care compared with patients who did not use chiropractic manipulative therapy.

Medicare does cover the cost of chiropractic adjustments.This is great for senior citizens because most seniors rely on Medicare to help with the cost of their healthcare expenses.  Furthermore, Medicare has found that chiropractic is a beneficial form of treatment for the management of lower back pain and many other conditions.
