For most people, a chiropractor is associated only with neck and back pains, but did you know they can also treat allergies, stress and anxiety, and weight loss? At Doyle Chiropractic & Acupuncture, Dr. Cody Doyle has been successfully treating patients with these conditions through a variety of holistic, non-invasive methods for over 20 years.

To see how Dr. Doyle can help you, contact us online anytime or call our office at 817-767-5430 to set up a one-on-one consultation today at our office.

Allergies

A misaligned neck causes a disruption in communication between the spine and the central nervous system. In turn, this causes an imbalance which results in allergies. Symptoms of allergies include:

  • Runny, stuffy, or itchy nose
  • Watery or itchy eyes
  • Chronic or acute congestion
  • Post-nasal drip
  • Coughing
  • Fatigue
  • Headache
  • Sore throat
  • Excess mucus

If you are suffering from one or more of these symptoms, chiropractic care and acupuncture can help reduce these symptoms and strengthen your immune system.

Dr. Doyle can perform a spinal adjustment to realign your neck, repairing the communication between the spine and central nervous system. In addition to musculoskeletal manipulation, acupuncture focuses on specific pressure points that run along meridians in the body. By inserting hair-thin needles through the skin, brain chemicals that correct imbalances are released.

Stress and Anxiety

Stress and anxiety can be caused by any number of things and can affect your body in many ways. Symptoms of stress and anxiety include:

  • Being easily agitated
  • Feeling overwhelmed
  • Having difficulty relaxing
  • Low self-esteem
  • Low energy
  • Headaches
  • Stomach aches
  • Chest pains
  • Racing thoughts
  • Inability to focus
  • Being pessimistic

Rather than just treating the symptoms, Dr. Doyle’s goal is to fix the issue to improve your overall health. Through holistic methods and a personalized treatment plan, Dr. Doyle will help find the areas of your life that are causing stress and the ways those things are affecting your body.

Chiropractic care and acupuncture can improve your lifestyle by realigning your spine, reducing tight muscles, improving your musculoskeletal and nervous systems, and boosting your body’s natural ability to heal.

Weight Loss

There are three methods Dr. Doyle will use to help you on your weight loss journey:

  1. Chiropractic care- With a misaligned back, it can be exceedingly difficult to get up and exercise. Figuring out the source of the problem and using musculoskeletal manipulation to fix it will be our top priority to get you back on the walking trails.
  2. Nutritional therapy- To help this process, Dr. Doyle may recommend adding or removing certain foods for your diet.
  3. Auriculotherapy- Placing two acupuncture needles in specific areas around your ear will help curb your appetite by making you feel full faster. These needles stay in place for two to three weeks and continue working for two to three more months. Other benefits of auriculotherapy include:
    1. Strengthening the willpower
    2. Decreasing addictive behaviors
    3. Reducing stress and anxiety
    4. Speeding up the metabolism

If you are struggling with weight loss, our team at Doyle Chiropractic & Acupuncture are eager to walk with you through your weight loss journey to a healthier lifestyle.

Healthy Tips for Pain Management

Keller chiropractor can reduce pain.

Pain comes in a variety of ways. It may be a dull ache, sharp shooting, radiating, chronic, or acute. No matter the level, it is uncomfortable and can negatively affect your quality of life. But depending on the severity, it may even be debilitating and keep you from performing basic daily tasks. Have you recently been injured in an accident at work, home, or on the road and are experiencing ongoing pain? Did you overwork a muscle at the gym but haven’t been able to get back to normal? Or perhaps there’s no rhyme or reason to your pain, you just know it started and it’s keeping you from enjoying a happy and fulfilling life.

Whatever the reason, you don’t have to live in pain for forever. Keller chiropractor Dr. Doyle offers a variety of alternative treatment methods at his practice to help patients manage their pain. He also discusses certain tips below to get you back to a healthier and pain-free lifestyle. Continue reading to find out more. We also invite you to schedule a consultation by calling (817) 767-5430 or contacting us online.

Reduce Stress

Stress can actually exacerbate pain because it increases the level of inflammation in your body. If you have a high stress job or hectic lifestyle, stop and assess your situation and see where you can cut back on stress in your life. You may also start implementing meditation or deep breathing exercises to help you relax and control stressful situations.

Boost Endorphins

Endorphins are chemicals in the brain that are instant mood boosters. But they can also block pain signals. How do you get them? Exercise. Even the lightest physical activity can release endorphins into the body. Not only will you start to feel better emotionally by exercising, but as the muscles strengthen, pain will start to reduce. Strong muscles can help prevent re-injury and additional pain. If your weight plays a role in your pain, exercise can also help you lose excess weight, as well as control blood sugar levels and reduce risk of heart disease. Ask your Keller chiropractor for an exercise routine that is right for you.

Try Acupuncture

Founded in traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture stimulates the nerves, muscles, and tissues in your body to address neck and back pain, extremity pain, and other musculoskeletal conditions. Your body is intended to function with certain energy patterns to function effectively. When these energy patterns are disrupted, it can result in pain, disease, and inflammation. Your body also has musculoskeletal acu-points along the surface of the skin. To help correct the disrupted energy flow, Keller chiropractor Dr. Doyle will strategically insert sterilized stainless steel needles in varying lengths into these acu-points to stimulate the underlying tissues and muscles.

It is important to note that Dr. Doyle is not directly treating any specific condition with acupuncture, but treating dysfunction in very specific points within your musculoskeletal system. Treating theses dysfunctional musculoskeletal points has been shown to have a wide range of health benefits, including pain management.

Undergo Routine Chiropractic Adjustments

Your spine hosts your central nervous system, which is responsible for sending messages from your brain to other organs in the body. When the vertebrae in your neck and back are out of alignment, it can cause mixed signals, resulting in pain, inflammation, and disease. By keeping your spine in proper position, you can reduce pain. It’s really quite simple: A healthy spine equals a healthy body. Keller chiropractor Dr. Doyle will fashion a treatment plan unique to your needs.

Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle

What you consume can affect your body’s ability to function. Filling it with wholesome foods gives it better fuel for functioning properly. But a healthy lifestyle doesn’t just mean eating healthy foods. It also means reducing alcohol consumption and avoiding smoking as both of these can exacerbate pain in the body.

Get a Massage

Getting a massage has double benefits. Not only will it help you reduce stress and relax – but it can also alleviate tight muscles often associated with chronic pain. People who receive a massage once a month have statistically been shown to have better health physically, emotionally, and mentally.
