Chiropractic Treatment for Brain Fog in Longmont

The clinical term for it is “cognitive impairment” or “clouding of consciousness”.  It’s used by conventional medical practitioners to denote “an abnormality in the regulation of the overall level of consciousness that is mild…”.  We just know it as Brain Fog and those who suffer from it don’t look at it as mild at all!  Longmont’s leading chiropractor, Dr Thompson at Café of Life Chiropractic, can help treat your brain fog so that you can function at your very best.

Those who suffer from brain fog describe it as poor concentration, forgetfulness, disconnectedness,  mental fatigue or confusion, slow thinking, spacey, “not firing on all cylinders”, brain dead, and more.  It interferes with our day (or with our life!) when there is a cloud over our mind and we simply cannot think clearly.

There is no specific test to determine a brain fog diagnosis as it’s based on each individual’s subjective experiences and is often a symptom associated with many conditions.  Brain fog is so common it can often be discounted or overlooked altogether yet it brings patients in to both chiropractic offices as well as conventional medical offices every day. It might be “common”, but it is not normal. Your brain can and should function clearly!

Get Treatment for Brain Fog with Chiropractic Care in Longmont:

A good chiropractor knows that a patient complaining of brain fog will need to have a full health assessment taken and a multifaceted approach to healing applied.  Health and lifestyle changes are likely going to accompany the chiropractic adjustments.

The brain, brain stem, and spinal cord must be aligned and in good condition.  Your spinal cord, nerves and peripheral nervous system is how your body communicates with your brain.  When the vertebra moves and gets out of alignment it causes stretching and distorting of the spinal cord. All those nerves do not function well, if at all, with that kind of disruption which leads to brain fog.  This diminished spinal function shows the importance of chiropractic adjustments.

Spinal adjustments, upper cervical spinal adjustments in particular, work very well at treating cases of brain fog.  In fact, our chiropractic patients regularly come in for adjustments because the onset of brain fog now gives them a “heads up” that the spine is out of alignment before any other symptom appears.

If you experience brain fog of any severity, don’t ignore it or assume it’s just something you have to live with.  Let our expert chiropractor work to remove the fog from your brain.  Dr Thompson is a Longmont family chiropractor you can trust.
