Pinnacle Chiropractic: The Benefits of Magnesium for Your Health
Welcome to Pinnacle Chiropractic
At Pinnacle Chiropractic, we believe in a holistic approach to health and wellness. Alongside our chiropractic care, we emphasize the importance of essential nutrients in maintaining optimal health. One such vital nutrient is magnesium, which plays a crucial role in numerous bodily functions. Our team is dedicated to helping you understand how magnesium can support your health and well-being.
Why Magnesium is Essential
Magnesium is a mineral that is involved in over 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It is essential for various functions, including:
- Muscle and Nerve Function: Magnesium helps regulate muscle contractions and supports proper nerve function, reducing the risk of cramps and spasms.
- Bone Health: It is crucial for bone formation and maintaining bone density, working alongside calcium to keep your bones strong and healthy.
- Energy Production: Magnesium plays a key role in converting food into energy, supporting your overall vitality and reducing fatigue.
- Heart Health: This mineral helps maintain a regular heartbeat and supports cardiovascular health by regulating blood pressure.
- Mental Health: Magnesium is known to help alleviate symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression by supporting the nervous system.
- Blood Sugar Control: It aids in regulating blood sugar levels, which is essential for preventing and managing diabetes.
Sources of Magnesium
While magnesium is available in supplement form, it’s best to obtain it from natural food sources. Some excellent dietary sources of magnesium include:
- Leafy Greens: Spinach, kale, and Swiss chard are rich in magnesium.
- Nuts and Seeds: Almonds, cashews, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds are excellent sources.
- Whole Grains: Brown rice, quinoa, and whole wheat are good options.
- Legumes: Black beans, chickpeas, and lentils contain significant amounts of magnesium.
- Fish: Salmon, mackerel, and halibut are high in magnesium.
- Dark Chocolate: A delicious source of magnesium, dark chocolate can be a healthy treat.
Signs of Magnesium Deficiency
Magnesium deficiency can lead to various health issues. Common signs of deficiency include:
- Muscle Cramps and Spasms: Frequent cramps, especially in the legs, can indicate low magnesium levels.
- Fatigue and Weakness: Chronic fatigue and general weakness may be related to insufficient magnesium.
- Irregular Heartbeat: An irregular or rapid heartbeat can be a symptom of magnesium deficiency.
- Mental Health Issues: Increased anxiety, stress, and symptoms of depression can be linked to low magnesium levels.
- Sleep Problems: Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep might be due to a lack of magnesium.

Patient Stories
Hear what our patients have to say about us.
I’ve now become a patient of theirs too, and I hope to start my other two children there as well
My 10 month old has been delayed on her gross motor skills. At her 6 month checkup, her pediatrician recommended she get evaluated for PT. In her case, I felt like she needed more that just PT to get caught up. I’ve heard so many people speak highly of chiropractic care for kids, I thought we’d give it a try. I can’t remember how I came across Pinnacle (might have been on Instagram because they have a lot of helpful posts). But anyway, I called and setup the first couple appointments for intake and scans. The entire staff is super friendly. Dr. Matt listened very well to what was going on with my daughter and we came up with 3 goals for her to hopefully meet with 9 weeks of adjustments (2x/week). The afternoon after her 2nd adjustment, she literally reached 2 of her goals. I almost couldn’t believe it. I realize it could have just been a coincidence but it’s just too close to happening right after the adjustments for me to assume that. She’s had about 10 adjustments total now, and she is catching up on other gross motor skills. Because she is a baby, her adjustments are quite gentle. There’s no cracking or popping involved. I’ve now become a patient of theirs too, and I hope to start my other two children there as well!

Both of my kids have made improvements since starting here 4 months ago and my husband and I have learned a lot too.
Can’t say enough good things about Pinnacle Chiropractic! While my son Ryan may have a fav doc ;-) we love all the docs and the whole staff here equally!!! Everyone is warm, friendly and welcoming. Moving from a different state and trying to find our tribe here was challenging, but we were welcomed in and Pinnacle has helped us find our way. Both of my kids have made improvements since starting here 4 months ago and my husband and I have learned a lot too. We are very grateful for the whole Pinnacle team and recommend them whenever we can.
