Help For Patients With Lyme Disease

Parkrose locals, if you’re suffering from Lyme disease, you may want to consider opting for physical care such as chiropractic care or massage therapy.

What Is Lyme Disease?

Lyme disease is transmitted from certain types of ticks to humans through a bite. The specific kind of infection that results in Lyme disease is spirochete or corkscrew-shaped bacteria known as Borrelia burgdorferi. It is spread via ticks that have fed on deer in specific parts of the U.S. It can have an effect on any part of the body, including the heart, brain, nervous system, muscles, and joints.

It is important to check for ticks frequently if you are in a tick-infested area. The longer a tick is attached, the higher your chances of contracting Lyme disease. Headaches, muscle pain, joint aches, neuropathy (including numbness, tingling, and loss of sensation), and other types of bodily discomfort are highly common for people with Lyme disease. Physical care, such as massage therapy or chiropractic care, can help relieve some of these symptoms.

How Can Chiropractic Treatment Help Parkrose Locals With Lyme Disease?

Therapeutic massage goes hand-in-hand with chiropractic care, as both treatments complement the other. Massage therapy stimulates circulation, reduces inflammation, eases stress and anxiety, and reduces pain, stiffness, and ache.

Chiropractic care can improve the functioning of the central nervous system and has been shown to help with the symptoms of achiness, stiff neck, and headaches. It has also demonstrated effectiveness in supporting the immune system. Thus, chiropractic manipulations could help by triggering a positive response in your immune system, and also assist with some of the pain that has resulted from either Lyme disease or PTLDS (Post-Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome).
