Seniors Chiropractic

The short answer is yes – dose and timing is the key. Arthritis, both inflammatory and otherwise, produces stiff and painful joints.

Chiropractic’s primary aim is to restore mobility to joints and stability to their supporting tissues. This can help provide non-medicative relief from joint pain and stiffness, and assist your return to better function.

Inflammatory arthritis requires a thoughtful and careful approach. Your chiropractor will utilise appropriate, lower force techniques, avoiding the active inflammation, to gently aid relief and advise you on home care management.

Mobility and regular exercise are essential for your bone density health. Your chiropractor will use appropriate, low force if necessary, techniques to help you regain and maintain your pain free mobility, assisting your management of your skeletal system’s health.

Maintaining balance requires strength, mobility, and coordination (healthy function and messaging from your nervous system). Joint and musculoskeletal injuries impair all three and can affect our balance more acutely as we age.

Your chiropractor will utilize appropriate, low force techniques to help restore mobility and coordination, assisting your balance and nervous system function.

Vertigo associating with BPPV and proprioceptive issues,   primarly  stemming from upper cervical dysfunction, can also be managed with appropriate tecniques such as the Epley manoeuvre.
