multiple sclerosis symptoms in Cape Coral

Some of the symptoms of multiple sclerosis include the following:

• Fatigue
• Numbness, tingling, or weakness
• Visual disturbances, such as double vision or loss of vision
• Weakened muscles or muscle spasms
• Dizziness or vertigo
• Tremor
• Slurred speech
• Poor bladder or bowel control

Chiropractic for Multiple Sclerosis Symptoms

There is no singular cure for multiple sclerosis, but there are various treatment options available to help manage symptoms. Some of the most common treatments in conventional medicine include medications like steroids, muscle relaxers, and tranquilizers. Other forms of treatment include changes in diet, exercise, and physical therapy. Since multiple sclerosis is a disease that affects the central nervous system, it makes sense to consider upper cervical chiropractic care as an excellent option for the relief of symptoms. Regular visits to your Cape Coral chiropractor will remove misalignments and restore communication within the entire nervous system, further improving the function of all the body’s systems. Dr. Omar Clark at Experience Health & Wellness Center offers safe, natural, and effective solutions for your symptoms so you can live life to the fullest, even after a multiple sclerosis diagnosis.

Has Chiropractic Helped Others with Multiple Sclerosis?

Complementary and alternative treatment methods have shown to be effective in the management of multiple sclerosis. Recently, studies have been conducted and have proven upper cervical chiropractic care to be a safe and effective method for managing multiple sclerosis symptoms and possibly eradicating the disease altogether. One study was conducted on a 32-year-old male who was experiencing numbness in the lower body and extremities. The patient reported a “complete absence of symptoms following the first treatment intervention.” Another study was conducted on 3,140 individuals in the United States, with 57% of them using alternative medicine therapies. Around 25% of those individuals chose chiropractic and reported the complete absence of symptoms including numbness, fatigue, cognitive difficulties, and gastric issues after chiropractic adjustments.
