Beware of autumn temperature changes and fatigue! Adjusting your body and autonomic nervous system with chiropractic treatment | The tailoring salon Re ・ Set in business in Hashimoto has updated the daily situation on the blog

For those who suffer from fatigue, stiff shoulders, and drowsiness due to the temperature changes in autumn, we will explain how to reset your body by regulating your autonomic nervous system and blood flow with chiropractic treatment.

The true nature of the fatigue you feel when the seasons change

Autumn is often thought of as a comfortable season, but in reality, many people complain of ailments such as feeling tired, having stiff shoulders, and feeling sleepy. This condition is called "temperature difference fatigue," and is one of the ailments unique to autumn, when the temperature difference between daytime and morning and evening becomes greater.

For example, you might have chilly mornings and evenings, but still be sweaty and hot during the day. When the temperature difference is more than 7°C in one day, your autonomic nervous system works at full capacity to adapt to the temperature, which can lead to fatigue.

What causes temperature difference fatigue?

The main cause of temperature difference fatigue is "disorder of the autonomic nervous system."

• Constriction and dilation of blood vessels
  When the temperature drops, blood vessels constrict, and when it rises, they expand. The autonomic nervous system is responsible for regulating this, and exposure to frequent temperature changes puts a strain on the nervous system.

• The effects of cold necks, hands and feet
  The neck, wrists, and ankles are known as the "entrances to cold," and when these areas get cold, blood flow throughout the body tends to become sluggish.

• Muscle tension
  The cold weather causes the body to freeze up and the muscles in the shoulders and back to stiffen, which also contributes to autonomic nervous system disorders.

As a result, symptoms such as headaches, stiff shoulders, dizziness, fatigue, and poor sleep quality appear.

A holistic approach

Chiropractic treatment can help relieve fatigue caused by temperature changes by correcting distortions in the body and restoring balance to blood flow and nerves.

1. Pelvic and spinal adjustment
   The autonomic nervous system is closely related to the nerves that run through the spine. Correcting misalignment of the spine and pelvis helps the autonomic nervous system function more smoothly.

2. Release tension around the shoulder blades and neck
   Loosening up the shoulder blades and neck area that have become stiff due to the cold improves blood flow, helping to relieve headaches and stiff shoulders.

3. Abdominal and diaphragm adjustment
   Shallow breathing means that the parasympathetic nervous system is not functioning properly. Chiropractic treatment improves the movement of the diaphragm and encourages deep breathing, leading to a more relaxed body.

Self-care you can start today

We will introduce effective self-care that can be incorporated into your daily life along with chiropractic treatment.

• Keep your neck, wrists, and ankles warm
  Protect your neck with a scarf, arm warmers, and socks.

• Stretching before bed
  Exercises that rotate the shoulder blades and slowly open and close the hip joints will loosen up the body and give dominance to the parasympathetic nervous system.

• Bathing habits
  Soaking in lukewarm water (38-40°C) for 10-15 minutes will help your autonomic nervous system switch more smoothly.

• Hot drinks
  It is recommended to avoid cold drinks in the morning and evening and instead warm your body from the inside out with hot water or herbal tea.

Summary: Reset with chiropractic treatment during the change of seasons

In autumn, the temperature difference can make the body more susceptible to fatigue, and various disorders can occur due to disruptions in the autonomic nervous system. If left untreated, this can lead to winter chills and a weakened immune system.

If you feel like you just can't shake off your fatigue or have persistent shoulder stiffness or headaches, we recommend that you seek chiropractic care as soon as possible. At Re・Set, we combine pelvic adjustment, shoulder and neck care, and breathing improvement, and offer treatments tailored to each customer's constitution and lifestyle.

Prepare your body to withstand the temperature changes and enjoy a comfortable autumn.
