Joint Pain Treatment in Houston

joint pain chiropractor houston txJoint pain is something almost everyone will experience at least once in their lifetime, especially as we age. This discomfort occurs because we use our joints daily, and things such as stress, exercise, and natural wear and tear on our bones are all factors that contribute to this.

And let’s not forget the most common reason for joint pain—arthritis. About one in every four adults diagnosed with arthritis state that they have experienced this.

This is debilitating and can cause lower quality of life, so it’s crucial to address the problem with gentle touch chiropractic.

Types of Care

Some forms of chiropractic care include joint mobilization, spinal manipulation, stretching and massage therapy, or cold/heat therapies. Some of these are perfect for the patient’s condition, while others are not recommended.

For example, for anyone suffering from inflammation in or around the joint, spinal manipulation could cause more harm than good. Also, someone with fragile bones should not be subjected to the harsh “cracking” technique. Chiropractic care may be an excellent solution depending on your current needs and condition.

Osteoarthritis

One of the most common types of arthritis is osteoarthritis. This condition occurs when the joints within the bones wear down, thus changing the bone’s structure and form.

Osteoarthritis is a natural wear and tear condition that happens with age and the use of the joint. This condition gradually progresses and gets worse. In more extreme cases, osteoarthritis causes limited use and eventually long-term disability.

Sometimes, chiropractic care will help ease the pain of the symptoms that present themselves from osteoarthritis. If this results from how the joint is positioned or causes pressure on certain areas of your bones, chiropractic care may treat the discomfort. In contrast, if this is because of lost cartilage, this type of care cannot restore what was lost to remedy the pain.

What to Expect From a Chiropractor

Suppose you’re looking for a way to ease your discomfort without resorting to addictive medications. In that case, chiropractic care may be the optimal solution for you. Chiropractic is an effective non-invasive method of treating pain within the affected area.

Chiropractors specialize in realignment and optimizing the relationship between your bones’ structures and functions. Contrary to popular belief, not all chiropractors use the infamous “bone-cracking” technique to perform their treatments. At our practice, Dr. Jackie St.Cyr uses gentle care.

Soft Tissue Therapy and Active Therapy for Mobility and Pain

Treating pain caused by joint degeneration is tricky. Trying just one method will limit your success and won’t work for people with various types of joint pain. At Innate Chiropractic Healing Arts Center, we focus on a two-step process of treatment that starts with diagnosis and ends with successful treatment.

Treatment includes training and strengthening muscles that are weak and applying heat/cold therapy to soft tissues that need external relief. Our treatment plan is a comprehensive plan that addresses all the areas causing pain.

Experience Comfortable Care

Gentle touch chiropractic may be the perfect solution for you. If you’re not a fan of traditional medicinal approaches to pain or if you hate feeling sore after your chiropractic adjustment, gentle chiropractic care is an excellent option.

You can finally feel pain-free adjustments while also benefiting from the effects of chiropractic care.
