Arthritis Treatment Charlotte
Aching joints, stiffness in the morning, or difficulty with everyday movements—these may be signs of arthritis. While common with age, arthritis symptoms can affect people at any stage of life, often progressing slowly before becoming more noticeable. Whether it’s your spine, knees, shoulders, or hands, arthritis may cause discomfort that interferes with your routine.
What Is Osteoarthritis?
Osteoarthritis—also known as degenerative arthritis—is the most common form we see. It’s not something that develops overnight. In many cases, it’s the result of long-standing joint dysfunction that leads the body to lay down extra bone in an effort to stabilize the area.
A Mechanical Problem, Not Just Wear and Tear
Contrary to popular belief, arthritis isn’t always the root cause of your pain. In many cases, it’s a sign that something deeper has been out of alignment for years. Even if symptoms are new, the underlying issue may have been developing silently for decades.
Our focus is to restore proper motion and reduce stress on affected joints—helping your body function more efficiently. Using the Activator® technique, we deliver gentle, low-force adjustments tailored to your needs. Dr. Dunn also uses a specialized tip on the Activator instrument designed for seniors and patients with advanced degenerative changes, making care more comfortable and effective.
Why Early Intervention Matters
When caught early, joint dysfunction can often be corrected or managed in a way that slows the progression of arthritis. Consistent chiropractic care can help preserve joint function, ease tension, and improve mobility.
Gentle Relief, Long-Term Benefits
If you’re experiencing pain, stiffness, or reduced range of motion, chiropractic care may help. Through precise adjustments and a whole-body approach, we aim to improve joint function without forceful techniques or medication. And by identifying the root cause, we can often prevent further degeneration from setting in.
