Ways to Boost Your Immune System

Flu season is upon us. It is commonly thought that the flu season starts in the fall and lasts through winter. Despite the fact that it may be true, there is still something we can do about it. The immune system can be boosted in many natural ways to fight viruses. Establish the first line of defense with chiropractic care. Check out these ways to boost your immune system and stay healthy!

Proper Sleep

The ideal amount of time spent sleeping should be eight hours per day. This is difficult to follow as we age, especially when work and family responsibilities cause us to sacrifice sleep. It is important to consciously make time to rest and sleep because the loss of sleep weakens our immune system. If getting a full eight hours of sleep does not fit into your routine, power naps might be a good solution.

Regular Exercise

The benefits of exercise don't just keep people in shape, it also provides joy by releasing endorphins. Nowadays, since nearly everything is done online, people can easily spend their entire day without exercise. It is important to schedule a couple of hours of exercise each week. It is easiest to do it before work in the morning. Walking from your home to your workplace might be a good option if it is close by. It might also be a good idea to walk to where you're going to have lunch. You should take advantage of any opportunity that may take you away from your sitting hours. Spend your free time doing outdoor activities you enjoy!

Chiropractic Adjustments

Your first thought when you think of chiropractic treatment is likely back and neck pain relief. Chiropractors not only relieve musculoskeletal pain but also provide a variety of other services. Chiropractic also improves joint function and spinal health. This aids in enhancing your nervous system which in return helps boost your immune system significantly.  

Changing seasons are beyond our control, but how we cope and adjust to those changes aren’t. It’s time to set a plan for boosting your immune system this season! Prepare your first line of defense now and schedule a consultation with Healthy Life Chiropractic, your local Newnan, GA chiropractor. 

Patient Reviews

"I was experiencing a lot of pain in my feet following the birth of my son. I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis in both feet. After seeing my PCP and being prescribed anti-inflammatory medication, I looked into the benefits of Chiropractic care. I was in so much pain from the plantar fasciitis that is because difficult for me to walk. I was unable to carry my newborn and walk because I was concerned for his safety. As part of my care plan, custom orthotics were recommended. Within days of receiving my orthotics I had a reduction in my pain. Regular Chiropractic visits and my orthotics have allowed me to be able to care for my son again!"

"I worked for Wal-Mart for 20 years walking on hard floors 10 hours a day. I felt a horrible pain in my right hip/buttocks area and could not bend or walk. My sister did a little research and recommended Healthy Life Chiropractic- They do EVERYTHING! After the first treatment, the pain was gone! After being educated on my problems, they worked on my whole body and it feels 100% better. I have never been a good sleeper, but I am sleeping much better and get up in the morning ready to go! I have never felt better!"

- Michael Chambers

"My daughter came in to see Dr. Rob for possible curve in her spine. She was officially diagnosed with scoliosis after her evaluation. As parents, we were having a hard time wrapping out heads around what that meant for our beautiful 8 year old girl. Dr. Rob, Dr. Tina, and the whole staff at Healthy Life Chiropractic have been phenomenal! After 2 months of treatment- regular adjustments and exercises- we are seeing a huge improvement! Her hips are aligned now, her feet meet properly, and she is feeling better all around. We haven’t retaken her x-rays yet- not until we’ve done treatment for a whole year- but based off our experience, and results we’ve seen so far, I am confident that her curve has not gotten worse and has probably even improved!"

- Margaret Wearne

"I began my chiropractic care in October 2017 because of increased pain and decreased mobility in my left hip that had gotten increasingly worse over the previous 4-5 months. I love that I have been able benefit from whole body treatment that in turn has almost completely taken away the issues I was experiencing with my hip. I am so grateful for feeling good again and I highly recommend Healthy Life for your chiropractic care and total life wellness."

"I have been a patient at Healthy Life Chiropractic for over 3 years! After driving several hundred miles a week and spending time on the computer for work, I not only get regular adjustments, I utilize the massage therapists as well. I've recently begun using, with success, Standard Process supplements and Doterra Essential Oils. I appreciate the holistic approach to care by all of the staff at Healthy Life!"

"I have been coming to Healthy Life Chiropractic for over a year now. The treatments I receive give me such a relief of stress. The personnel is a big part of my relief.
