McHenry Chiropractic Care Encourages Exercise for a Healthy Heart and Mind
It’s February in McHenry. It’s the month of hearts. They’re everywhere! So how’s your heart? Is it healthy? Is it mind-supporting? The healthy question affects its physical health for which exercise is a logical activity. The mind-supporting question involves its influence on the mind and cognition and vice versa. No matter the age of its owner, the heart is key to the life of each of our McHenry chiropractic care patients whether they have back pain or neck pain or not. OrthoIllinois Chiropractic celebrates the healthy, mind-supporting heart!
HEALTHY HEART
The healthy heart demands attention. No McHenry chiropractic treatment plan is complete without it. OrthoIllinois Chiropractic encourages all our McHenry chiropractic patients and their families and friends to award it a lot of attention. Attention via some good McHenry cardiovascular activity is amazing for the heart…and achieves considerably more than just work the heart. It improves the lives and minds of all people with a heart, all of us McHenry folks! Exercise improves cardiovascular fitness and lessens major depressive disorders in relatively inactive adolescent/early adulthood people. (1) Of course, the trick is to create an exercise option that can motivate a normally sedentary depressed adolescent person to exercise regularly. (2) OrthoIllinois Chiropractic is quite aware of many McHenry parents who can relate to this as well as partners of McHenry back pain sufferers turning to McHenry chiropractic help for it! Now on the other end of the spectrum, the older folks who do best are those who keep physically active, those who keep mentally active, those who keep a positive outlook toward healthy ageing, those who occupy their minds. Researchers note that these folks do a mix of sedentary things (reading/crosswords) and active things (walking/helping others). Doing these activities in a social context is best. (3) OrthoIllinois Chiropractic sees many older McHenry chiropractic patients who enjoy life immensely and recover from back pain and other aches and pains more swiftly when they are involved in life. It keeps their hearts full and their minds linked to their hearts.
MIND-RELATED HEART
Keeping the mind full and active and keeping the heart mind-related helps all ages. One report discusses that regular exercise helps the mind and its cognition. It lessens the risk of age-related cognitive decline. Intense exercise may even help certain types of memory consolidation. (4) Another report presents that exercise like Tai Chi brings the mind into body exercise. It affects the heart rate beneficially – its rate and blood flow - for older adults’ cardiac health and cognitive function. (5) OrthoIllinois Chiropractic urges a combination of heart-related exercise from more intense to less intense to keep the heart – the physical one and the mind-related one – in top shape.
