The team at the New Zealand College of Chiropractic have done it again! A new study looking at whether chiropractic adjustments lead to changes in the way the brain controls muscles was recently accepted for publication in the Journal ‘Brain Sciences.’ The study was made possible by funding from the Australian Spinal Research Foundation, the Hamblin Chiropractic Research Fund Trust, the New Zealand College of Chiropractic and Koç University in Istanbul, Turkey. This latest piece adds to an important body of evidence surrounding chiropractic care, and examines whether changes in muscle drive occurred at a brain or spinal cord level.
Few interventions affect the success and ease of pregnancy and delivery more than Chiropractic care. And few areas of healthcare need more attention and improvement than infant and maternal health. Infant mortality continues to be a significant concern.
The benefits of Chiropractic extend far beyond the relief of pain. Improvements in sleep, digestion, fertility, breathing, immunity, heart health represent just a few of the benefits achieved through the achievement of proper spinal alignment and function.
