Here is some very important information for you to read & understand if you suffer from OSTEOARTHRITIS.
Also referred to as Old Age (OA) arthritis, it is a degenerative condition involving degradation of the joints.
It can affect the joints of the spine & large weight- bearing joints such as the hips & knees especially, and also other joints such as the shoulder, wrist, fingers, ankles & toes.
What we will discuss is alternative treatment options as most people are conditioned to think pain-killers, anti-inflammatory drugs, various forms of therapy & in extreme cases surgery are the only options available.
There are several causes of osteoarthritis such as infections & diabetes for example, but many investigators that mechanical stress on the joints underlies all osteoarthritis.
And I believe this to be true as well as there are many people well into their 90’s who have zero clinical signs or functional signs of the disease. It is my very firm opinion as a chiropractor whose specialty is the joints of the spine & skeletal system that aside form congenital & pathological causes, most osteoarthritis is the result of structure & not age.
And if you suffer from osteoarthritis, this is good news; no, very good news for you as there is the possibility of significant relief awaiting you that does not involve the use of potentially dangerous drugs,medications or surgery.
What you need to understand is that all the bumps, bruises, work injuries, sports injuries, home injuries, falls, car accidents & even child birth had an effect on your spine & probably some of your skeletal joints as well ( the joints of your arms & legs ).
These trauma’s whether major, minor or cumulative do not go un-noticed. They all have an effect on your spinal joints or extremity joints or both. The effect is a misalignment. The joints do not articulate properly, this causes excess wear & tear, & eventually the joints start to degenerate & become arthritic.
Now the next important thing you need to understand is that you can have your joints re-aligned. This is what chiropractor’s do. They can re-align the joints of your spine as well as your extremities & this is what will slow down & in many cases stop the process of joint decay & degeneration.
Once the joints can articulate properly, they become more flexible, healthier & less painful. This will have a dramatic effect on the quality of your life. And this I have seen many, many times over my 25 years of practice.
And one of the most wonderful things about chiropractic care is that it is totally natural. The Osteoarthritis treatments do not invade or violate your body in any way, shape or form. Think of your skeletal system as the frame of your house (body).
Now most people would want their real house to have a strong & properly aligned frame, don’t you think?
Well what about the house where your spirit lives?
Think about it … which one is easier to replace?
Which one is more important?
