How spinal adjusting may affect the neuroendocrine system – interview with researcher Dr. Kesava
Some patient report better sleep, improved digestion, immune system improvements, reduced stress, reduced inflammation, and overall well-being following their chiropractic or osteopathic spinal manipulation adjustments.
Dr. Pete Angerilli, chiropractor interviews researcher and clinician Dr. Kesava Kovanur Sampath discussing some of his findings which are uncovering how spinal adjustment/manipulation affects the nerve system, endocrine system, and whole body function/health. Chiropractic patients for over 100 years have noticed changes in many aspects of health after spinal adjustments. In this episode Dr. Pete interviews a researcher who is investigating the mechanisms of how spinal adjusting/manipulation affects the nerve system, endocrine system including the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
