Your autonomic nervous system manages everything from your heartbeat to your breathing without your conscious input. In the case of dysautonomia, there is disruption to this system and your body's automatic functions stop functioning correctly, leading to a host of unpredictable symptoms.

You may be feeling like your body is out of sync, or symptoms such as heart rate fluctuations, blood pressure issues, severe fatigue, and digestive problems, to name a few. In time, these issues don’t just affect physical health— the impact on other areas of your life cannot be understated.

But here’s where Upper Cervical Chiropractic offers hope. While not a cure, Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care focuses on spinal alignment and optimal nervous system function, which can be particularly beneficial for those with dysautonomia. Addressing misalignments of the upper cervical spine may be able to help ease some of the symptoms you are experiencing.

How UCC Can Help Dysautonomia?

• Improving Nervous System Communication: Proper alignment often improves the transmission of nerve signals that regulate autonomic functions.

• Reducing Physiological Stress: Subluxation and Misalignment often add physical stress, which may contribute to making symptoms worse. UCC adjustments help relieve this stress, potentially reducing symptom severity.

• Supporting Well-Being: By improving spinal health and nervous system function, chiropractic may help individuals achieve a better overall quality of life, enhancing their ability to manage symptoms.
