Chiropractic May Be the Answer
There are marshmallow-like pads between your vertebrae called intervertebral discs. The discs are very tough but can be damaged. The discs provide for movement in the spine. When discs start to degenerate the spine can become less mobile, and may even start to fuse together.
The discs also provide space between the vertebrae. This is important because nerves pass through the spaces that are created by the discs. Discs also act as shock absorbers. When movement occurs, the jelly solution inside the disc has the ability to expand and compress. If the spine becomes misaligned, a disc can become bulged or herniated. In some cases, it may even rupture. A misalignment is not the only cause of this problem. Age can cause the disc to become weak and dehydrated.
If you are struggling with back or neck pain, chiropractic care may be the best treatment option for you. Chiropractic is one of the least invasive and safest options for conditions of the spine and discs.
The Science of Chiropractic Care
Patients who seek out chiropractic care do so for a variety of reasons, they are seeking help with alleviating back or leg pain caused by an injury or trauma, avoiding and reducing headaches and migraines, reducing the symptoms of carpal tunnel, and a variety of other issues.
By aligning the spine and correcting issues with posture, balance, and correcting their proprioception, which affects issues within the inner ear and affects our spatial awareness, chiropractors can help reduce joint pain and soreness in the surrounding muscle and tissue.
Because chiropractic care is non-invasive, it is often seen as a preferred alternative to medication or invasive surgery because it can help many patients find solace from their joint and muscle pain.
