Epilepsy is a neurological disorder that affects more than 180,000 people in the United States of America. Seizures or convulsions are caused by this condition, and they have an impact on the activity of the brain. Epilepsy can affect people of all ages, including children. Even though seizures can make people feel out of control, some methods can help them manage their symptoms. If you have seizures, no matter how frequently they occur or whether they are associated with epilepsy or not, chiropractic care from a Bentonville chiropractor can help reduce the frequency and severity of your seizures.

Chiropractors help:

Those who only think of chiropractic care as a way to alleviate back or neck pain are missing out on the incredible benefits of chiropractic care for overall health and well-being. Because the vagus nerve has been linked to seizure disorders, Dr. Tom Niemela of Arbor Vitae Chiropractic offers neurologically-based chiropractic care. Chiropractic is only logical from a scientific standpoint. Chiropractic treatment is aimed at correcting spinal misalignments that can cause nerve interference, which can affect the vagus nerve and result in dysfunction in the body. Stimulating the vagus nerve can be accomplished in two ways: pressing on the side of the neck and addressing problem areas in the upper spine.

Chiropractic care can improve nerve function, which can help to address the underlying cause of seizures and reduce the number of seizures that occur. Studies have also discovered that chiropractic care can have a significant impact on people who suffer from epilepsy. One study included seventeen people who suffered from seizure disorders. After seeing no improvement from their medication, fifteen people decided to try chiropractic care, and all had positive experiences with it.
