Chiropractor for osteoarthritis
Reduction of complaints
Wear and tear, also called osteoarthritis, on the spine 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, the cartilage that sits between the vertebrae becomes less. Thus, nothing can be done about the osteoarthritis itself, but a regular visit to the chiropractor can greatly reduce osteoarthritis symptoms, thereby providing relief.
causes
The most common causes of neck pain are:
- an accident that causes damage to joints
- congenital defect of cartilage
- presence of joint disorders
- essive joint mobility/muscle weakness
- heredity
- old age
- obesity
- physical strain in strenuous occupation
What to expect
Intake
During the intake, we will discuss your symptoms in detail and perform a scan of the spine. We show the results and we explain where subluxations occur and exactly what that means.
We also look at your posture and muscle tone. After the examination, you will immediately receive your first correction. Often quite a relief after which you will experience more freedom of movement.
Intensive period
We zullen altijd een intensieve opstartperiode aanbevelen. Whether you suffer from many symptoms or not, it is important that your body learns to adopt and maintain proper posture. When there is too much time between the first corrections, it is more difficult to build this memory.
Once your spine gets used to the new alignment, we enter a less intense phase.
Maintenance phase
Usually, after the intensive period, it is enough to return monthly for what we call “maintenance. In fact, due to everyday stresses of life, we all get “stuck” on a regular basis. Some people like to come more often or less often.
What works for you is very personal, we will find out what works well for you.
