Many people will persevere while experiencing minimal effects because the body adapted and effectively coped with the stress. The brain and central nervous system process all stress both internally and externally. A key aspect in managing the stress of uncertainty and life’s variables comes from the management and care of the body’s regulatory system. Chiropractic adjustments help hit the reset button on the central nervous system and reduce stress hormones. A strong nervous system helps alleviate the burden of physical and mental stress.
