Arthritis is a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide, causing pain, stiffness, and inflammation in the joints. While there are many types of arthritis, the most prevalent are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. At Balance Atlanta, we understand how debilitating arthritis can be and offer chiropractic care as a non-invasive, drug-free solution to help manage pain, improve joint function, and enhance overall quality of life.
Arthritis is one of the leading causes of disability in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 58.5 million American adults have been diagnosed with arthritis. Osteoarthritis, the most common form, affects over 32.5 million people in the U.S., while rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disorder, impacts about 1.5 million. The burden of arthritis is substantial, with the condition often limiting mobility, reducing productivity, and significantly affecting quality of life.
People with arthritis are also more likely to suffer from other chronic conditions, such as heart disease or diabetes, due to the inflammation that affects the entire body. The economic cost of arthritis is also staggering, with more than $304 billion spent annually on healthcare and lost wages due to the condition. Given its prevalence and impact, finding effective treatment options for arthritis is critical.
Chiropractic care offers a holistic approach to managing arthritis pain and improving joint function. By focusing on the alignment of the spine and joints, chiropractic adjustments can reduce pressure on affected joints, improve mobility, and decrease inflammation. Here’s how chiropractic care can specifically help with arthritis:
At Balance Atlanta, we provide treatment for various types of arthritis, focusing on improving joint health and reducing pain.
Osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritis, occurs when the cartilage that cushions the ends of bones wears down over time, leading to pain, swelling, and stiffness. This form of arthritis typically affects the knees, hips, hands, and spine. Chiropractic adjustments can help alleviate osteoarthritis pain by restoring proper joint alignment and reducing stress on affected joints. Regular care can slow the progression of osteoarthritis and improve overall joint function.
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder in which the body’s immune system attacks the synovium, the lining of the membranes that surround the joints. This results in inflammation, pain, and potential joint damage. Chiropractic care for rheumatoid arthritis focuses on reducing inflammation, improving mobility, and relieving pain in affected areas. Our functional medicine approach can also help manage rheumatoid arthritis by addressing underlying inflammation throughout the body.
Bursitis is a related condition that involves the inflammation of the bursae—small fluid-filled sacs that cushion the bones, tendons, and muscles around joints. Bursitis commonly affects areas such as the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees. Like arthritis, bursitis can cause significant pain and limit mobility.
Chiropractic care for bursitis involves gentle adjustments to alleviate pressure on the affected area, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. By improving alignment and reducing irritation, chiropractic treatments can help relieve the pain of bursitis without the need for medications or invasive procedures.
At Balance Atlanta, we believe in taking a comprehensive approach to arthritis and joint health. Our chiropractic care is combined with functional medicine and advanced therapies to create an individualized treatment plan for each patient.
Our functional medicine approach looks at the whole person, addressing factors such as nutrition, inflammation, and overall lifestyle to improve your body’s natural ability to manage arthritis. We create customized wellness plans that support joint health, reduce inflammation, and promote long-term vitality.
For patients dealing with chronic arthritis pain, our BrainCore Therapy uses neurofeedback techniques to help the brain regulate pain perception. This innovative therapy can help reduce the overall sensation of pain, making it easier to manage arthritis symptoms day-to-day.
Research shows that chiropractic care can play a crucial role in managing arthritis symptoms. A study published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics found that patients with arthritis who received chiropractic care experienced significant reductions in pain and improvements in joint function. Additionally, the Annals of Internal Medicine reported that chiropractic care combined with exercise was more effective at reducing neck pain, a common issue for those with arthritis, than medication alone.
At Balance Atlanta, we don’t just treat symptoms; we address the root causes of your arthritis pain and work to improve your overall health. Our experienced chiropractors take a personalized approach to your care, using cutting-edge technology and integrative therapies to support your long-term well-being.
