Arthritis Prevention and Treatment | Chiropractor for Arthritis in West Omaha, NE
Hey there. I’m Dr. Jeremiah Sample from Family First Chiropractic. Today, I’d like to discuss arthritis and how you can find relief from it. Arthritis affects about one in four Americans, particularly women and veterans.
What is Arthritis?
Arthritis is a degenerative condition where the body forms bony fibers around a joint due to decreased mobility or instability. Over time, these fibers restrict the joint’s movement and can spread up and down the spine, affecting overall mobility.
What Can You Do?
Firstly, it’s crucial to keep moving, even though movement may be uncomfortable if you already have arthritis. Visiting a chiropractor can help you assess the extent of your arthritis and determine the appropriate treatment.
Preventative Care
For future prevention, consider incorporating more water into your diet, increasing your walking, and engaging in regular exercise. Strong bones and lean muscle mass are key, so the more you exercise, the better your overall health will be.
