Chiropractic Adjustments Prevent Spinal Degeneration
Regular Chiropractic check-ups and adjustments prevent and, in some cases, reverse the effects of joint and disc degeneration in the spine.
Medical studies* dating back to the early 1980’s help prove the importance of spinal adjustments to prevent arthritis, decay, and degeneration of the spine.
The study showed that improving motion through a quick and precise spinal adjustment restored the proper conditions for the repairing of connective tissue.
Chiropractic serves as the premier health care option for people of all ages determined to mitigate, prevent, or minimising spinal degeneration.
A 2003 study performed in Aberdeen, Scotland showed that 9% of ten year-olds had spinal disc degeneration without knowing or feeling the presence of the condition. This study agrees with many others that prove the health of the spine cannot be determined by the way it feels.
High blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar are all potentially deadly conditions that do not cause pain.
Spinal degeneration bears the dangerous responsibility of impacting both the spine and the brain.
Most healthcare professionals do not possess contemporary knowledge involving the science and research that support Chiropractic care as a safe and healthy alternative to drugs and surgery.
The spine provides specific nutrients to the brain and nervous system every hour of life. No pill or artificial substance can provide a suitable alternative.
Appropriate alignment and movement of the spine are necessary for optimum nervous system health.
Regular Chiropractic care provides essential movement that prevents decay and degeneration while keeping the body healthy in every stage of life from infancy and children to adulthood.
