Arthritis Pain Management

Arthritis pain centers on the joints and can stem from any number of causes. Over 100 separate conditions fall under the definition of arthritis, though they all center on similar kinds of pain. Arthritis is most common in the elderly, but certain types can strike patients of any age. Pain in the joints can be caused by deteriorating cartilage, inflamed tissue, fused bones or even lingering injuries. Early diagnosis is extremely helpful in this regard, as it can provide the patient with the means of addressing arthritis pain beyond just visiting the doctor.

Many Patients Seek Chiropractic Treatments for Arthritis Pain

Chiropractors see a large number of patients for arthritis pain, and in many cases have proven very successful at treating the condition. The basics of chiropractic technique entail shifting misaligned bones and joints back into position. This frees restricted nerve endings and can reduce joint inflammation. More importantly, chiropractic treatments for arthritis pain seek to increase joint mobility, which can break the vicious cycle into which many arthritis patients fall. When their joint hurts, they will move them less, often exacerbating the cause of the condition and increasing the pain. Chiropractic treatments can increase mobility in the joint, which encourages the patient to use it more and further decreases the pain.

Chiropractors can also help by creating exercise programs and developing lifestyle plans to further reduce arthritic pain. A more active patient can fight the effects of arthritis more readily, which is important when the condition is chronic as it often is with arthritis. The offices of Racine Chiropractic & Wellness Center offer treatment for arthritis pain in the joints and back.
