Dr. Lee  Asks some important questions of interest to Conway residents - Chiropractor Conway Dr. Lee Asks...

Why are some people allergic to pollen and others aren't?
It's not the pollen. Chiropractors know that if it were, everyone would be allergic to pollen, nuts and pet dander. But that's not the case. It's the person, not the pollen! If you live in Conway and your stress levels are high, then each year the grass, the trees or the weeds put your nervous system over the top. Many report that chiropractic care helps reduce the frequency and severity of their allergic response.
Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?
With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our Conway chiropractic practice.

Can Chiropractic Solve Bedwetting?

Every child who experiences it knows the shame, the embarrassment and the frustration of not being able to control it. Bedwetting… it erodes a child’s self-esteem and keeps them from participating in the sleepovers that are part of every young child’s social scene.

So…what can a parent do to help their child? Most simply take a “wait and see” approach until the child grows out of it. But several studies documented in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics show promising results using chiropractic care to help these children.

One study included 171 children who wet the bed seven nights a week. After some initial chiropractic care, the average child wet the bed only four nights. Twenty-five percent saw a 50% reduction in “wet” nights and 15% were considered “dry,” compared to only 1% prior to the study!

There is an area of the spine, the lumbar or sacrum, that houses the nerves that regulate the bladder. Misalignment in that part of the spine may be one of the causes of bedwetting. Therefore, it is an especially good idea to have a spinal checkup on a child who suffers from bedwetting. The solution may be as close as our practice!
