If you’re tossing and turning at night, waking up stiff or sore, or struggling with restless sleep, the problem might not be your mattress & it could be your spine. At Peninsula Chiropractic of Niagara, Dr. Thomas Egan uses the Gonstead technique to help patients throughout Welland and Niagara sleep more soundly by restoring proper spinal alignment and relieving nervous system interference.
The Spine-Sleep Connection
Your spine doesn’t just support your body, it also protects and works with your central nervous system, which controls everything from digestion to muscle function to… you guessed it, sleep. Misalignments in the spine, especially in the neck and upper back, can interfere with nerve signals and trigger physical tension, stress, and discomfort that keeps your body from entering a truly restful state.
How Chiropractic Care Helps
Dr. Egan’s chiropractic adjustments are precise and gentle, targeting only the areas that need correction. By aligning the spine and reducing pressure on key nerves, chiropractic care may help:
- Reduce pain that interferes with sleep (such as back, neck, or hip pain)
- Improve circulation and relaxation
- Regulate nervous system activity
- Promote better breathing posture and reduce tension in the shoulders and chest
Many of our patients report deeper, more restorative sleep after just a few visits &mdash especially those who had no idea their sleep quality was tied to spinal misalignment.
Restoring Balance Naturally
Unlike sleeping pills or other temporary solutions, chiropractic care is a natural, holistic approach that addresses the root of the problem. The Gonstead method allows Dr. Egan to find and adjust specific problem areas without affecting healthy parts of the spine. This level of precision is ideal for helping the body unwind and return to a more relaxed, balanced state.
