Degeneration of the joints in the body begins without you knowing and it happens to us all. Arthritis, spondylitis and rheumatism are names normally given to the pain and stiffness resulting from wear and tear to your joints. They can occur in any joint of your body, including your spinal vertebrae. Chiropractic treatment may often relieve the pain and help you return to normal activities.
Other joint problems often caused by repeated trauma that chiropractors can treat include:
• Shoulder pain
• Tennis elbow
