How To Win The Seasonal Battle Against Germs

We are dedicated to assisting everyone in discovering effective strategies for immune support. During this time of year, when germs seem to be relentless, strengthening your body’s natural defenses is crucial in combating illness.

Regular chiropractic adjustments, even when you feel well, are essential in preventing spinal misalignments that can hinder the transmission of signals to your immune system, prompting it to respond effectively when needed.

Additionally, massage therapy plays a vital role in promoting lymphatic circulation, facilitating the
elimination of toxins that may compromise your immune system's efficiency. Beyond the overall relaxation provided by deep tissue massage, it also contributes to lowering stress hormones that can induce inflammation in the body. We encourage you contact us to get on Michael's schedule sooner rather than later, as it fills up quickly!

We are also committed to supporting your nutritional needs. We offer a wide range of whole food supplements available for purchase in our office and provide personalized Nutrition Response TestingSM. Give our office a call to set up an appointment for Nutrition Response TestingSM, or let us know what supplements you need. For your convenience, we also maintain an online store that allows you to browse our products and ship them directly to your home. This month our in office product feature is a 30-day immune system health pack. We encourage you to visit soon, as supplies are limited!

We understand that the fall season can be daunting due to the potential for illness and the time lost to feeling unwell. Let us help you proactively strengthen your defenses against germs before you start to feel unwell!

Boost Your Immune System!

Chiropractic adjustments may support the immune system by improving nerve function and communication between the nervous and immune systems, enhancing circulation to deliver immune cells and nutrients, and reducing stress hormones like cortisol that can suppress immune responses.  

Some studies suggest that regular chiropractic care can lead to a stronger immune response, fewer illnesses, and increased white blood cell activity. However ,the effectiveness can vary by individual, and chiropractic care should be viewed as one component of a broader wellness strategy, not a standalone cure. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

Adjustments can boost blood flow and lymphatic circulation, ensuring that essential nutrients and immune cells are transported more effectively throughout the body. [1, 5]




Fixing spinal misalignments with adjustments helps to reduce stress levels by promoting relaxation and balancing the body's stress response; too much of a stress response can lead to a weak immune system. [2, 9, 10, 11]




It is important to consider that the effectiveness of chiropractic care can differ from person to person [6]. A holistic approach to your health will be most effective when trying to maintain your pain free lifestyle. At Lakeland Chiropractic we have a massage therapist on staff who can help with stress management, tension and improving lymphatic circulation and parasympathetic tone.
