ARTHRITIS TREATMENT​
​​​
Arthritis can make everyday activities like walking, climbing stairs, gardening, or getting out of bed more challenging. At Bayview North Family Chiropractic, we take the time to understand how arthritis is affecting your movement and daily life so we can develop a treatment plan that's tailored to your needs and goals.
WHAT IS ARTHRITIS?​​​​
​​​​​​
Arthritis is a general term used to describe inflammation or degeneration affecting the joints. Osteoarthritis, the most common form, develops gradually as the protective cartilage within a joint changes over time. While arthritis cannot be reversed, many people are able to manage their symptoms and maintain an active lifestyle with the right combination of movement, education, and conservative care.
COMMON ​SYMPTOMS WE SEE​​​
-
Joint pain and stiffness
-
Pain with walking or climbing stairs
-
Localized swelling and inflammation
-
Grinding or clicking sensations (crepitus)
-
Reduced range of motion
-
Stiffness after prolonged sitting or resting
WHY AN ASSESSMENT MATTERS​​​​
​​​​​​
Not every stiff or painful joint is caused by arthritis. A thorough assessment helps determine whether arthritis is contributing to your symptoms or if another condition may be involved, allowing us to recommend the most appropriate treatment plan.
