Chronic Inflammation and Immune System Issues in Lawrenceville
Inflammation is the body’s natural response to injury, infection, or harmful stimuli. However, when it becomes chronic, it may set off a variety of health issues, including autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis.
Chiropractic care offers a holistic, non-invasive, and drug-free approach to managing chronic inflammation and supporting your immune system.

How Chiropractic Care Reduces Inflammation
At its core, chiropractic care focuses on spinal health and alignment, which directly impacts the nervous system—one of the key regulators of immune function.
Here’s how chiropractic adjustments can help:
- Reducing Nerve Interference—Misalignments in the spine, known as subluxations, may interfere with nerve function and worsen inflammation in the body. Through targeted chiropractic adjustments, Dr. Minott corrects these misalignments, restoring proper nerve function and reducing inflammation at its source.
- Lowering Stress—Chronic stress is a significant contributor to inflammation and immune system dysfunction. When out of alignment, the body struggles to manage stress effectively, further suppressing immune function. By improving spinal alignment and musculoskeletal balance, chiropractic alleviates physical stress on the body. When the body is in proper alignment, it can better handle stress, allowing the immune system to function more efficiently.
- Boosting Circulation and Lymphatic Drainage—Chiropractic adjustments improve circulation, allowing oxygen and nutrients to reach inflamed areas more effectively, which is essential for reducing inflammation and supporting healing. Better lymphatic drainage also helps remove toxins and inflammatory agents from the body, promoting faster healing and lowering the chance of recurrence.
- Promoting a Balanced Immune Response—In autoimmune disorders, the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues, leading to painful flare-ups and chronic discomfort. Our care helps regulate and balance the immune system by addressing the underlying nervous system dysfunction. By promoting better nerve function, we help reduce the frequency and severity of autoimmune symptoms and provide long-term relief.
- Supporting Overall Wellness—Many practice members with immune disorders also suffer from other symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, and digestive issues that impact daily life. Through gentle, noninvasive chiropractic care, we help you manage your symptoms, reduce inflammation, and improve your overall well-being. If you’re struggling with an autoimmune condition or chronic inflammation, chiropractic care can help you feel your best.
Common Autoimmune Issues We See:
- Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis: An autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the thyroid gland, leading to hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). Symptoms may include fatigue, weight gain, and sensitivity to cold.
- Myasthenia Gravis: A chronic autoimmune disorder that impairs communication between nerves and muscles, causing muscle weakness, especially in the eyes, face, and throat.
- Lupus: A complex autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks multiple tissues and organs, such as the skin, joints, kidneys, and brain. Symptoms can include joint pain, fatigue, and a butterfly-shaped rash on the face.
