Heart Rate Variability (PWP) at Bright Futures Family Chiropractic
The Pulse Wave Profiler helps Dr. Stephanie to determine your overall ability to adapt to the environment. It does this by looking at the timing of your pulse, and determining the balance and tension within your nervous system. This exam is known as heart rate variability. Stressful lifestyles habits including poor dietary choices, limited exercise and constant emotional aggravation can cause the body to be caught in the “fight-flight” response. This can lead to exhaustion and a draining of a person’s reserves. A score within the green box on the graph is associated with better adaptability and relates to a healthy lifestyle. Low heart rate variability is associated with accelerated aging and poor heart health. Published research has shown that chiropractic adjustments have a beneficial effect on heart rate variability

To the right is an initial Heart Rate Variability (PWP) performed on a Bright Futures Family Chiropractic patient and another testing done on the same patient 7 months into their care with BFFC. This patient was experiencing high anxiety, is a cancer survivor, and suffered from migraines. NOW this patient is in wellness care and is experiencing more energy, is more clam, and her migraines are a thing of the past!
