An individual's best investment is their health. The saying ‘health is wealth' is an old Victorian saying from our forefathers which reflected their condition of life. During their time, poverty and hunger were very rampant in that it threatens their health and they do not even have access to the medical care that we now enjoy today.

As we have learned in biology, the immune system gets to fight of viruses if it's healthy. It is our protection from flu and other communicable diseases and if the virus still manages to get inside our system, it's the immune system's job to helps us nurse ourselves back to health. The nervous system is the boss of our immune system; it controls it and coordinates it with the other parts as well. Chiropractors, especially those in our [http://www.facebook.com/RoachFamilyChiropractic Altamonte Springs chiropractor ]office, whose expertise is spine realignment, checks abnormalities of the spine called vertebral subluxations which occurs when the nervous system interfere with nerves by placing pressure on them.

A chiropractor in our [http://www.facebook.com/RoachFamilyChiropractic Altamonte Springs chiropractor ]group boasts that those who are under their care have a more competent immune system compared to those who don't.

The nervous system and the immune system work hand in hand so as to be able to make positive responses for the body, helping the body to adapt and heal appropriately. Maitland chiropractic focuses on the treatment of subluxations which are stressful for the body and is the reason for some abnormal changes that are taking place leading to a poor response-coordination of the immune system therefore increasing susceptibility to diseases. These subluxations are also known as spine misalignments that cause compression and infection of nerve pathways that affects our body's organ system. After the nervous system balance is restored, patients will enjoy a renewed flow of energy and the information between the nervous and immune systems will have a more open channel for information exchange wherein the latter will gain better control of the former. After a number of sessions, patients have reported that allergy symptoms are less severe, and they could recover from colds and flu at a shorter time.
