Spinal pain is a common problem, and there is a host of treatments and medications available claiming to offer symptom relief. But few of those treatment options work to address the cause of joint problems rather than just the symptoms. Treatment at our clinic can be a viable remedy for joint problems and pain affecting all areas of the musculoskeletal system. Manual adjustments can encourage joints to line up and function properly, effectively reducing chronic pain for many patients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I see a chiropractor for my joint problems?

Yes. Chiropractic treatment and manual joint adjustments can be effective for alleviating joint pain of all types, from sprains and strains to fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis. If you are experiencing joint pain, contact us to find out if chiropractic treatment could benefit you.

What should I expect during my first chiropractic visit?

The Doctor will first diagnose your pain by finding the source of the problem. If you have an injury, you may be advised to continue chiropractic adjustments and supplement with physical therapy. If your joint pain is related to an underlying health condition, try modifying your diet to avoid inflammatory foods that could be contributing to your condition.

Is there anything that I need to do to care for my joints between visits?

Yes. If you are overweight or obese, your weight could be putting excess pressure on your joints, resulting in chronic pain. Change your diet and exercise habits with the goal of obtaining and maintaining a healthy weight. You can also help prevent joint pain by wearing joint braces or resting the joint periodically throughout each day. If your joints are inflamed, try applying ice to them for a few minutes each day.
