Arthritis Care at Seim Chiropractic and Wellness
Though a diagnosis of arthritis can be unsettling and even scary for some of us, it’s actually a normal occurrence. We all will have some form of it in our lifetime, and it’s often unavoidable. We can live with it however, keeping pain at bay while maintaining joint function, with the help of chiropractic care.
A Targeted Approach to Your Care
Dr. Eric takes his patients who have arthritis through targeted exercises that are specific to that patient’s needs. He’ll also recommend exercises you can do at home to strengthen the areas affected.
He’s also a big proponent of the benefits of heat in the form of saunas, hot showers, and hot packs—whatever his patients have on hand in their homes or is easily accessible for them. Other possible adjustment styles that he uses during chiropractic care can include the following:
- Diversified
- Cox Flexion-Distraction
- Gonstead
- Activator Methods®
- Active Release Technique (A.R.T.)
- Graston
By improving movement in the joints and removing restrictions that may exist, Dr. Eric is helping to improve the symptoms of arthritis and inflammation and allowing the nervous system to again function at an optimal level. Most patients will feel relief in a day or two after an adjustment, and over time, with consistent treatment, will be less symptomatic in between appointments.
Take the Next Step Toward Relief
The key to alleviating the symptoms of arthritis is to keep moving. Dr. Eric will help your joints move easily, improving the health and stability of the affected areas and reducing the symptoms of pain and discomfort.
