Managing Arthritis Pain: How Chiropractic Can Help

Arthritis is a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide, causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. While traditional treatments often focus on medication and surgery, many are turning to alternative approaches for relief. Chiropractic care offers a natural, non-invasive method to manage arthritis pain and improve overall quality of life. At AlternaHealth Solutions, we specialize in providing comprehensive chiropractic care for arthritis patients.

Understanding Arthritis

Arthritis is not a single disease but a term encompassing over 100 different conditions affecting joints and surrounding tissues. The two most common types are:

1. Osteoarthritis: Caused by wear and tear on joints over time

2. Rheumatoid Arthritis: An autoimmune disorder causing inflammation in joints

Symptoms often include:

• Joint pain and stiffness

• Swelling

• Reduced range of motion

• Fatigue

How Chiropractic Care Can Help

Chiropractic care offers several benefits for arthritis patients:

2. Improved Mobility

Regular chiropractic care can:
