Chiropractic Treatment for Fatigue in Falls Church, VA
Fatigue is a sign that your body is out of balance. In chiropractic, we categorize fatigue as either:
- Fatigue caused by deficiency
- Fatigue caused by overstimulation
You might think of fatigue caused by deficiency as classic fatigue. This is the type of exhaustion that results from a lack of sleep, feelings of burnout, poor nutrition, a low-performing nervous system, or a combination of these factors. Chiropractic treats fatigue caused by deficiency through spinal manipulation that restores nervous system function; we also encourage patients to make lifestyle changes to support improved health.
On the other hand, if you feel exhausted and yet you’re unable to fall asleep each night, you may be suffering from fatigue caused by overstimulation. This is a symptom of chronic, low-level stress and it can push your body into an unhealthy sympathetic state.
You might also know the sympathetic state as fight-or-flight mode. In this state, your body is flooded with the stress hormone cortisol and your adrenal glands are depleted. At Palmercare, we treat this kind of fatigue by first enabling better nervous system function through adjusting the spine, then balancing the hormones and pinpointing lifestyle changes that can reduce your stress levels.
