Osteoarthritis and chiropractic

Wear and tear, also called osteoarthritis, of the spine and joints is what plaque is to teeth: even if we brush and do our best to prevent it, deposits can still form on teeth. With osteoarthritis (or osteoarthrosis), the cartilage on the joints of the vertebrae can wear and diminish over time with excessive stresses.

While we may not be able to reverse the osteoarthritis and degeneration, regular visits to the chiropractor can greatly improve spinal function and may reduce your symptoms, thereby providing relief.
