A subluxation in the upper neck may be the reason you're having trouble sleeping! Your brainstem is part of the brain that dips down into the top part of your upper neck where nerve cells activate portions of your brain which produce wakefulness and sleep. When there's an irritation or friction of the brainstem area by a subluxation it can cause disruption in the function of these specific nerve pathways. This can result in upper neck and back pain, postural changes, breathing issues, and sleeping problems.When a person has suffered from an accident or injury it can create weakness, breakdown, and lock the upper neck into an unhealthy stressed position. This can be a progressive condition ... and the longer the spine is left in this state the worse it gets. This friction or pressure of the brainstem is the underlying cause of the sleep problems in so many of our patients!Regular chiropractic adjustments can help restore proper nerve supply, reduce muscles tension, spasms, and improve blood flow in the nervous system allowing the body to be more at ease and relaxed. After getting adjustments, our patients have reported they've felt an improvement in their sleep and greater life satisfaction.
