Spinal Adjustments
Our doctor will realign the vertebrae in the affected area to alleviate pain on the spinal nerves. With the adjustments, inflammation in the digestive system will decrease. Stimulation of the cells and organs, due to food sensitivities, will also decrease. Along with better mobility in the spine, your digestive system will work better again.
Intersegmental Traction
Intersegmental traction involves the use of a special chiropractic table. This specific table includes rollers that will roll along the sides of the spinal column, allowing blood to flow through the tight muscles and ligaments. As this occurs, the muscles and ligaments loosen up and relax more; in addition, your spine will become more mobile. This type of treatment is effective with alleviating pain caused by food allergies/intolerances.
Acupuncture
Electro-therapy, or acupuncture, is effective with food allergies/intolerances by focusing on certain pressure points. Patients will notice, after several treatments, the pain and/or inflammation from food sensitivities begin to decrease. In addition, they will start to see more mobility come back to the spine and other affected areas.
Lifestyle Advice
When it comes to lifestyle advice, the main discussion point will be changing your daily diet. From a young age, many people will remember the original/traditional food pyramid. This placed a lot of complex carbohydrates (such as grains and rice) at the base, and sweets and oils would be at the very top. In other words, there was more focus on carbohydrates, while fruits, vegetables, and all the proteins got lost in the middle.
To correct this, revise your diet to be more low-carb, high-fat based; also known as the Keto diet. With this diet, your meals focus more on those proteins, fruits and vegetables being overlooked in the food pyramid; additionally, your carb/sugar intake reduces drastically. Meals should consist of 60-75% fats, 20-30% protein, and 5-10% carbs. Foods such as potatoes, dried fruit and dairy should be avoided.
Reducing your sugar intake, along with modifying your diet, can result in having more energy and control of your overall health. A ketogenic diet could provide many health benefits for everyone.
