Arthritis is a common condition that affects millions of people, causing joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. While living with arthritis can be challenging, chiropractic care offers a natural, non-invasive solution to help manage symptoms and improve your quality of life.

 

At Montgomery Family Chiropractic in Germantown, MD, we provide personalized care to help arthritis patients feel better and stay active.

 

Understanding Arthritis

 

Arthritis refers to inflammation of the joints and encompasses several types, including:

​

  • Osteoarthritis: The most common form, caused by wear and tear on the joints over time.

  • Rheumatoid Arthritis: An autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the joints.

  • Psoriatic Arthritis: Linked to psoriasis, this type causes joint inflammation and pain.

  • Gout: A form of arthritis caused by a buildup of uric acid crystals in the joints.

 

How Chiropractic Care Helps Arthritis Patients

 

Chiropractic care focuses on improving joint function, reducing inflammation, and alleviating pain associated with arthritis. By addressing the underlying issues that contribute to joint discomfort, chiropractic care helps patients maintain mobility and enjoy a better quality of life.
