- Arthritis, unfortunately, is quite common. Simply put, it means a joint is inflamed. This could be caused by undue stressors placed upon the spine over years of biomechanical distortion, overuse of joints, deterioration of cartilage within the joint, or even lack of motion!
- Many patients seek non-pharmacological, non-surgical means as a way of treating arthritis. Upper Cervical Chiropractic removes biomechanical distortion and restore neurologic integrity allowing the spine to function the way it was designed…as a spring for shock absorption. Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression when coupled with Upper Cervical care can be highly effective at treating arthritis by inducing the proper curve in the spine, separating the joint surfaces, and hydrating the intervertebral disc.
