Chiropractic care and Arthritis

WHAT IS ARTHRITIS?

Although arthritis is a common condition, it is not well understood by the general public. “Arthritis” is not a single disease, but a term used to describe many different joint diseases and conditions that cause joint pain.

In total, there are over 100 types of arthritis and associated conditions. These conditions can affect people of any age and gender.

The most common arthritic conditions include:
Osteoarthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis
Cervical Spondylosis
Ankylosing Spondylitis

How can chiropractic care help?

Chiropractic is effective at treating many types of arthritis. It is an all-natural, safe, and non-invasive treatment that does not involve any pharmaceuticals.
Your chiropractor will use gentle adjustments to your joints which correct misalignments and reduce joint restrictions. These adjustments can reduce joint inflammation while improving the function of the affected joint.

Visiting a chiropractor can lead to:

Less inflammation around the joints

A more active and enjoyable lifestyle

Low-Level lasers

In our clinic, we have a Low-level laser (cold laser). This technique uses a non-heat-producing laser or light that penetrates deep into the tissue, sometimes reducing inflammation. Cold lasers can stimulate all types of cells, including muscle, ligaments, nerves and cartilage. The treatment promotes the body’s natural healing. Overall this can help with pain causes from Arthritis!
