Redondo Beach CA Chiropractor Explains Stress and Physical Health

When we wear our minds down with stress, these thoughts and feelings can take a toll on our physical health in Redondo Beach CA. Common side effects of stress may include headaches, muscle tension, fatigue, or irritability. The key to handling stress is determining the cause and treating your body to a moment, or several, of deep relaxation. Our doctors at Catalina Chiropractic Center can help you manage stress through a variety of alternative techniques.

Manage Stress in Redondo Beach CA

When the body is stressed, the “fight or flight” response is triggered and will increase cortisol levels. When cortisol levels or “stress hormones” become out of control, they can put the immune system in jeopardy, as well as raise blood pressure. It’s one thing to be stressed over missing a deadline or being stuck in traffic, but if chronic stress is becoming a problem, we offer alternative treatments such as acupuncture and massage to alleviate the problem.
