Osteoarthritis: Silent Disease- Part Two-Niles Chiropractor 60714
Published by Chicago Chiropractor Seaman Chiropractic on Monday, April 12, 2010 at 7:22 AM.
This is Dr. Cynthia continuing with an explanation of the different ways osteoarthritis is treated in a patient using traditional medicine and how the silent disease is treated through natural chiropractic medicine. I have been serving the Niles Community as a chiropractor for 25 years.
The Medical Approach
Medicine offers no cure for arthritis. Symptom treatments include a lifetime of drugs for the pain and inflammation, heat and exercises.
If a joint severely degenerates, surgery is suggested.
1) Aspirin, while it does reduce pain, stiffness and inflammation can cause stomach irritation, bleeding and ulcers.
2) Drugs such as Tylenol, Indocin, Advil and Naprosyn can cause kidney damage, bleeding of the esophagus, stomach and small intestine.
3) Steroids, with prolonged use, may cause thinning and weakening of the bones and kidney disease. Approximately 10,000 people a year die from gastrointestinal complications from drugs prescribed for arthritis.
The Chiropractic Approach
At Seaman Chiropractic Center, I find the cause of arthritis, i.e. structural problems, benign neglect, disruptions of the joint(accidents, falls), unlevel or rotated joints.
With a specific, progressive combination of chiropractic corrections, physical therapy, massage, orthotics and acupuncture, I achieve high success in treating and managing arthritis without drugs or surgery. Professional athletes, like Lance Armstrong and Tiger Woods, use chiropractic care to protect their joint health and prevent osteoarthritis. What do the athletes know that you don't?
