Chiropractic Support for Cold and Flu in Oklahoma City

Cold and Flu Season in Oklahoma City

Cold and flu season is upon us. It’s the time of the year that everyone has the sniffles that can turn into a full-out flu or cold that can attack your whole office or home. What many people do not know is that chiropractic in Oklahoma City can help keep your immune system in great shape to fight off these illnesses.

Cold vs. Flu: What’s the Difference?

The cold and flu are sometimes hard to tell apart. They have many of the same symptoms and are both very common, contagious, short-term, and sometimes self-treatable. Young children, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems and chronic illnesses are at high risk of catching both. The flu can cause body aches, fatigue, and a dry cough while a cold can cause runny nose, congestion, and sneezing. Both can be severe enough to keep you from work and living your daily life, and both can be caught by members of your family or coworkers.

Common Cold and Flu Treatments

Cold symptoms are usually less severe than flu symptoms and most treat symptoms with over-the-counter medication. When suffering from flu-like symptoms, people usually go to their primary doctor to get medication. But did you know that there was a more natural way to not only help your symptoms but help your overall health?

Cold and Flu FAQ

Can chiropractic care help boost the immune system?

Yes. Chiropractic adjustments can reduce nerve interference and support better communication between the nervous system and the immune system. This helps the body respond more efficiently to seasonal illness like colds and flu.

Is chiropractic care a natural way to prevent colds and flu?

Yes. Regular chiropractic care helps keep your spine aligned and your nervous system functioning optimally, which can naturally strengthen your immune defenses and reduce your chances of getting sick during cold and flu season.

How does spinal alignment affect immune health?

The nervous system controls all bodily functions—including immune response. Misalignments in the spine (subluxations) can disrupt nerve flow. Chiropractic adjustments remove this interference so your body can better fight off illness.

Can chiropractic care help me recover faster from a cold or flu?

Yes. Many patients report quicker recovery from colds and flu after chiropractic adjustments. By supporting nervous system function and reducing stress on the body, chiropractic care helps speed up the healing process naturally.
