Osteoarthritis is abnormal wear and tear on a malfunctioning joint.
This can be very painful and anywhere in your body that a joint is located. Chiropractic care can help treat a contributing cause of osteoarthritis. Chiropractic care involves chiropractic adjustments, along with therapies such as ultrasound, electric muscle stimulation, and laser therapy, stretching and exercises for patients.The adjustment will help restore motion and function in a joint that is not moving properly. This will help reduce further wear and tear on a joint and slow down the degenerative process itself.
Chiropractic care relieves pain and inflammation that is located in the joints. This is return, will help decrease the pain caused for the osteoarthritis. Chiropractic manipulative therapy also increases the mobility of the joint which can help improve joint stiffness and lack of motion.
Therapies that chiropractors utilize help in junction with the adjustment to reduce pain and inflammation. Ultrasound therapy sends sound waves deep into the tissues and joints and helps to reduce inflammation. Electric muscle stimulation sends electrical impulses into the muscles to reduce pain and muscle tightness or spasms. Cold laser therapy goes to the cellular level and promotes healing at that level.
Combined, all of these therapies will help the patient not only feel better, but also help reduce the chance of more osteoarthritis forming in the future.
