Autoimmune diseases occur when the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own cells, tissues, and organs. The pathology of most diseases in this category have unknown causes as well as no cure as most interventions involve the regulation of inflammatory symptoms. Chiropractic is excellent at increasing range of motion, reducing stiffness, and breaking up adhesions in joints in these cases. Chiropractic also regulates the nervous system and improves connection between the brain in the body. Although chiropractic cannot claim to be a cure for autoimmune diseases, it does a great job as an alternative, holistic way of improving quality of life.
