Spinal Degeneration/Osteoarthritis
This condition involves a slow
degeneration of the cartilage that protects your joints where bone
meets bone. Synovial fluid which helps to lubricate the joint like
oil on a wheel reduces its friction. Aging, injury or trauma, poor
posture and infection can cause joints to wear down and become stiff
and painful. Bone deformities called "bone spurs" occur in
conjunction with decreased disc height and reduced joint motion.
Chiropractic
Chiropractic
adjustments can reduce, and even stop spinal degeneration
Chiropractic improves spinal balance and posture and keeps your
joints, nerves, and discs healthy and strong. The restoration of
motion to a stuck or "fixated" joint leads to restoration of normal
joint function and physiology. A Chiropractic treatment program may
include spinal or joint adjustments (to alleviate some of the
restrictions), exercise (stretching and strengthening),
nutritional advise and other modalities.
