How Chiropractic Care Reduces Stress, Improves Sleep, and Boosts Immunity

women sleeping wellAre your stress levels through the roof? Struggling to get the deep, restorative sleep you need? Do you feel like you’re catching every bug that goes around?

You’re not alone—stress, poor sleep, and a run-down immune system often go hand in hand. So, why is that?

How Stress Affects the Nervous System

Chronic stress can lock your nervous system into “fight or flight” mode, driving up your heart rate, muscle tension, and feelings of anxiety. Over time, this state—known as sympathetic dominance—can disrupt digestion, weaken immunity, and throw off your sleep patterns.

“Chiropractic care focuses on aligning the spine to help the nervous system function at its best, leading to stress relief, improved sleep, and stronger immune responses,” says Dr. Erik Coombs, St Louis Park chiropractor.

How Does Chiropractic Help?

Chiropractic adjustments stimulate the vagus nerve—your body’s natural “brake pedal”—helping shift you into a more relaxed, balanced state. Regular adjustments restore harmony between your sympathetic (stress) and parasympathetic (rest) systems so your body can focus on healing instead of staying stuck in survival mode.

Chiropractic for Better Sleep

Do you find it hard to wind down at night? Insomnia and restless nights are common when your nervous system is overstimulated. Chiropractic adjustments help calm the body, reduce muscle tension, and promote deep, restful sleep. Many people notice it becomes easier to fall asleep and stay asleep after just a few visits. Plus, as your sleep quality improves, you’ll likely spend more time in the restorative deep sleep stages your body needs.

Boosting Immunity Through Chiropractic Care

When the spine is out of alignment, nerve signals can get disrupted—compromising your immune system. Chiropractic adjustments help restore clear nerve communication, allowing your body to respond more effectively to infections. Many people under regular chiropractic care report fewer colds and faster recovery when illness does strike.
