Chiropractic Reduces Blood Pressure

Dr. Joe Borio from Borio Chiropractic Health Center in Cicero, NY states that elevated blood pressure decreases significantly with regular chiropractic care.

A study in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics in December 1988 reports that patients under active chiropractic care experienced significant decreases in elevated blood pressure.

In the study, each patient was randomly assigned to one of the three groups; those receiving active chiropractic care, placebo chiropractic care, or no chiropractic care.

According to the authors, no significant changes occurred in the placebo and control groups.

An October 1993 study in the same journal reported that patients under chiropractic care who are taking high blood pressure medications may experience their blood pressure dropping too far below normal.

As a result of these studies, the authors advise that patients should be monitored by their medical doctors for any downward adjustments in their medications as they progress with chiropractic care.

“Chiropractic care helps restore your body's normal, homeostatic balance by adjusting misalignments of the vertebra (subluxations) that cause interferences to your nervous system, interferences that can stop your body from working the way it should. Everyone with a spine is subject to subluxations and should be regularly checked by their chiropractor; just like your teeth with the dentist.” said Dr. Joseph Borio.

Borio Chiropractic’s purpose is to educate and adjust families toward optimal health with natural chiropractic care.
