How chiropractic improves sleep disorders

At the Marc Bony Chiropractic Center in Mataró, we understand the importance of restorative sleep. Chiropractic adjustments can be the key to overcoming sleep disorders without resorting to medication.

Chiropractic and sleep disorders without medication

I explain how to combat insomnia or problems related to sleep disorders

There are many types of sleep disorders, which can be grouped:

  • Problems staying awake (narcolepsy)
  • Problems maintaining a sleep schedule
  • Unusual behaviors during sleep (sleepwalking, night terrors)
  • Problems falling asleep and staying asleep (insomnia)

Sleep disorders often arise as a consequence of some illness or imbalance in the body, and this is how it expresses itself. So some of the causes may be:

  • Anxiety, hyperthyroidism, pain-producing diseases, psychiatric illnesses, depression, abuse of hypnotics, sleep apnea
  • Snoring, obesity
  • Chronic hypersomnia at an early age
  • Bruxism, emotional stress, restless legs, iron deficiency anemia, chronic kidney failure, diabetes mellitus, Parkinson’s
  • Medications such as sedatives, antihistamines, neuroleptics, or antidepressants

Some of the effects of sleeping little (less than 6 hours each night)

  • Heart aging
  • Risk of insulin resistance
  • High blood pressure
  • Risk of severe dementia or Alzheimer’s
  • Psychosis or mental impairment
  • Lack of concentration and productivity
  • Blood toxicity
  • Immune system dysfunction

The ideal number of hours for an adult ranges from 6 to 9 hours of sleep per night.

What can chiropractic do for sleep disorders?

Chiropractic and sleep disorders, how can chiropractic adjustments help you? Among many other things, they help control anxiety levels, regulate cortisol levels, and allow patients to stop using sleep medications in a very short time since the start of chiropractic treatment, as these are only temporarily helpful, or they affect many other aspects of the body and have very noticeable and quick side effects.
