Is Exercise the Best Drug for Depression?

Chiropractic Neurologist have know this for over 20 years. Movement stimulates the brain especially the Frontal Cortex, which has been shown to be the problem in most cases of depression. This is why the chiropractic adjustment is so affective in helping patients with health problems. The joint mechanoreceptors and muscle spindles of the spine are the most stimulatory to the brain when fired. When the joints and muscles of the spine are not firing properly you can have a decline in brain out put causing many different health problems. This is also why exercise has such an affect on the brain.
