Chiropractic And
Prevention:
Life doesn’t have
to be a series of
emergencies anymore
Q: It seems that I am always
sick. I do what my doctor says
but if anything my colds and flu
attacks are getting worse. What
do you think?
A: Constant
colds
and
influenza indicate that the
immune system (and the body in
general) is highly stressed. Did
you know that recently leading
scientists have discovered that
the entire immune system is
an out-growth of the nervous
system? If you nervous system
is stressed and irritated, the
immune system cannot work
properly either. People who
have regular Chiropractic
checkups report that they get
fewer colds and influenza. They
keep the stress off their nervous
systems. Keeping irritation off
the nervous system also helps
Dr. Billy R. Flowers
you avoid morning backache
and head-aches and allows you
to cope with stress better. And
you’d be amazed at the energy
you have with preventive
Chiropractic checkups.
If you’d like to trade in your
colds for a bounce in your step,
call us for an appointment
today. It could be the healthiest
call you have ever made.
Isn’t time you stepped up to
