STRESS It is a daily challenge and it affects all aspects of our lives, but do we really know about stress?

The most important aspect of stress is the body’s response to a stressor. Your stress response is controlled by your nervous system.

Let’s say you are involved in a near miss automobile accident.  Your stress response would include: Sweat glands, goose bumps, increased respiration, pupil dilation, increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, increased muscle activity in the head and neck, increased adrenalin secretion, increased blood delivery to muscles, decreased blood delivery to gut, decreased hand temperature and heightened brain activity.  All of these responses are normal during a life-threatening event, even though they are very demanding on the body. However, if this highly aroused state is inappropriately activated and/or remains in effect for long periods of time, not allowing the body to return to a normal relaxed state, it creates severe damage to the normal functions of the body.  Therefore, the real challenge of the stress response is the ability of your nervous system to regulate the response appropriately. When the nervous system loses the ability to regulate this system, our long-term health is at risk. So how do we know if your nervous system is functioning normally?

Today, you now have access to the same technology NASA Astronauts use to monitor stress on space flights, Gold Medalists use to hone their skills at the 2008 Olympics and professional athletes use around the world! The NeuroInfiniti Stress Response Evaluation is a very effective and accurate method of measuring the neurological stress response. It is a 12-minute computerized test, which is totally non-evasive, no needles or treadmills. Sensors are attached to your skin in areas such as your shoulders, head, forearms and hands. Add some headphones and relax, you are ready for your personal stress evaluation. This is a certified research quality technology that is 98.9% accurate and reproducible!

The NeuroInfiniti Stress Response Evaluation is now providing reproducible data showing that Chiropractic Care improves the neurological regulation of the stress response. Most people are under the misconception that Chiropractors simply move bones and joints, when in fact, the greatest benefit of the Chiropractic adjustment is the ability to re-establish the appropriate regulation of the body through enhanced neurological control of all the body’s systems, including the stress response! Our office is now using the NeuroInfiniti Stress Response Evaluation to ensure that you and your loved ones are getting the most out of your care and the most out of LIFE!
