Who we Serve

Adults

Chiropractic care is extremely important for the maturing and elderly adult because of the dramatic changes that occur in the spine with increasing age. As we age, especially if our daily life involves sedentary behavior, our spinal discs, facet joints, ligaments, muscles and other spinal tissues become weaker, less hydrated, more fibrotic (stiff), and less able to withstand normal stresses of our daily lives. As a result, spinal pain from spinal degeneration (arthritis) becomes more prominent, tissue injury from relatively benign events occurs (e.g. mowing your lawn or playing a pick-up game of basketball), and the time to heal from injuries increases.

Routine chiropractic care has a number of benefits which are especially important for maturing adults:

• Relief from spinal and extremity pain
• Decreased stiffness and muscular spasms
• Decreased overall inflammation
• Decreased arthritis and arthritic joint pain
• Enhanced muscle, tendon, and ligament healing post injury
• Increased mobility and range of motion
• Increased balance and coordination, fall prevention
• Increased sense of well being
• Increased energy
