In actuality “arthritis” is not a single disease. There are over 100 different types and severities of the disease, making it the leading cause of disability in America -- affecting more than 50 million. However, there are two main types of arthritis that can benefit from routine chiropractic care: Osteoarthritis - A degenerative disorder affecting flexible joint cartilage Rheumatoid Arthritis - A chronic inflammatory disorder in joints In both cases, self care combined with non-invasive, non-addictive treatment, should serve as your first line of defense to manage and relieve pain and discomfort.
