Complete Remission of Crohn's Disease with Chiropractic Care
Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease. According to a study, about half a million people in the United States suffer from the disease. There is no known cure for the disease. However, a recent article published in the Journal of Subluxation Research suggests that patients who underwent chiropractic care noticed a marked reduction in Crohn’s disease symptoms.
What is Crohn’s disease?
Crohn’s disease is an autoimmune inflammatory bowel disease. It occurs in the small intestine at the point it meets the large intestine. The disease is most common in:
- People aged between 20 and 29
- People who smoke
- Those who have relatives with either Crohn’s disease or another IBD
The symptoms gradually appear and worsen with time. Some even have periods of remission lasting weeks to years.
According to Healthline, there is currently no cure for the disease. Its standard treatment includes medication like antibiotics and painkillers that only treat the symptoms. The long-term use of drugs, however, can trigger side effects.
How chiropractic helps treat Crohn’s disease
Chiropractic care is a better, non-surgical, and drug-free approach to controlling Crohn’s disease. Patients who were taking lots of drugs and even had surgery have benefited through chiropractic. They used to visit the hospital every other month. With chiropractic care, they only need a little shot every couple of weeks. It’s because of their customized chiropractic treatment that includes:
- Spinal manipulations
- Lifestyle corrections like healthier eating habits and workouts
- Regular chiropractic visits
- Vitamin D, calcium, iron, and vitamin B12 supplements. People living with Crohn’s disease have difficulty absorbing vitamins and minerals.
Patients couldn’t even go for walks because they were suffering from lower back pain, neck pain, and hip pain. They now remain pain-free and can walk as long as they want after two months of chiropractic. They can even work out for more extended periods without feeling any lower back pain. Their life and overall wellness style improved so much, all because of chiropractic.
