Do You Have Osteoarthritis? Chiropractic Care Can Help!
Osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint condition, affects millions of people, causing chronic joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. As the cartilage between bones wears down, joints become inflamed, making daily activities increasingly difficult. While osteoarthritis has no cure, innovative and non-invasive treatments, such as those offered at Texas Spine & Sports Rehab Clinic in League City, TX, can provide significant relief and improve your quality of life.
Understanding Osteoarthritis Symptoms
Osteoarthritis typically impacts weight-bearing joints, such as the knees, hips, and spine, but it can also affect the hands, shoulders, and neck. Symptoms may include:
- Pain during or after movement
- Stiffness, particularly after periods of inactivity
- Swelling and tenderness in the joint area
- A grating sensation or loss of flexibility
If left untreated, osteoarthritis can progressively worsen, limiting mobility and leading to further complications.
How Chiropractic Care Can Help
At Texas Spine & Sports Rehab Clinic, Dr. Alfredo Vazquez employs a comprehensive approach to osteoarthritis treatment that ensures each patient receives personalized care. Chiropractic adjustments play a vital role by realigning the spine and joints to reduce pain, improve function, and alleviate stress on affected areas.
Our Treatments for Osteoarthritis Relief
- Class III and Class IV Laser Therapy - Laser therapy is a non-invasive technique that reduces inflammation and promotes tissue healing. Class III lasers focus on reducing surface-level pain and inflammation, while Class IV lasers penetrate deeper tissues to provide more powerful and long-lasting relief.
- Spinal Decompression Therapy - This method gently stretches the spine, relieving pressure on compressed nerves and improving blood flow to affected areas, which is particularly beneficial for osteoarthritis in the neck or lower back.
- Corrective Exercises - Targeted exercises strengthen muscles around the joints, improving stability and reducing strain on arthritic areas.
- Manual Therapy and Massage - These hands-on techniques enhance circulation and reduce joint stiffness, allowing for greater flexibility and reduced discomfort.
