Episode Synopsis

First off, it's important to know that getting a little soreness after your first adjustment is completely normal. Think of it as a positive sign that your body is responding to the changes. During an adjustment, we're realigning the spine and stimulating the nervous system, which can cause some temporary discomfort. The soreness is often a result of your body adapting to the new alignment. It's similar to starting a new workout routine – the muscles and joints need time to adjust. Typically, this soreness lasts for a day or two at most, and it's a sign that your body is on the path to healing. Listen in as we explain what is happening to the spine and body as it works through the re-alignment process.
