Seattle Chiropractor for asthma


How could chiropractors help with asthma? Well...again, the nervous system controls everything in the body. The lungs are made up of tiny little sacks called alveoli that are surrounded by vascular blood vessels controlled autonomically by smooth muscles. The autonomic nervous system is responsible for things that are done sub-consciously. This includes breathing, digestion, hormone levels, immunity etc.... The important thing to realize is that we don't have to "think" about these things, they are still regulated by nerves connected to the brain. At Sound Chiropractic Center, Dr. Jason Silliker works with the thoracic spine and ribs that are intimately connected to the autonomic nervous system. If you have asthma and live in Seattle, call Dr. Silliker at Sound Chiropractic Center to schedule an appointment today.
