Do You Suffer from Acid Reflux? Chiropractic Care Could Help


Acid reflux or GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) is a condition where the acid in your stomach moves up the esophagus causing a burning sensation. The most common cause for acid reflux is when the esophageal sphincter does not function correctly,



You might be surprised to learn the esophageal sphincter is a muscle. If this muscle is weakened or injured in some manner it can open randomly to allow acid to flow backward out of the stomach, like when you lay down.
