Joint Pain
may result from any number of diagnoses, such as
tennis elbow, runner’s knee, frozen shoulder, carpal tunnel
syndrome or from repetitive motion injury, improper sitting,
overexertion, slips, falls, accidents. The traditional
medical approach might be to splint to reduce joint movement,
pain medication and muscle relaxant prescription, steroid
injections, or surgery. Chiropractic treatment would
focus on restoring normal range of motion to the joint and
thereby proper function of the spine and extremities would
be the end result. Improving joint motion helps to
restore normal biomechanics and in so doing, circulation
is also improved to the area, scar tissue is reduced and
the overall healing process is improved by motion occurring
earlier.
Joint pain
is caused by not having a layer of lubrication and cushion
between two bones. The Joint is like a shock absorber with
cartilage and fluid called synovial fluid. With this
cushion your movements are nice and easy without pain.

you can take to improve joint health and we can help you
