Chiropractic treatment for Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis, contrary to what most people think, can be treated with chiropractic.The chiropractor is an experienced professional who adapts his treatment and will use the appropriate technique for each specific case.

Osteoporosis, before it reaches an advanced level, can be prevented. From the age of forty, it is advisable to carry out preventive bone osteodensitometry, in order to measure your bone density in advance.

Safe and innocuous treatment

Before reaching a level of osteoporosis, we go through a state called osteopenia, which is a lower level of bone demineralization.
In the care of patients with osteopenia or osteoporosis, specific chiropractic techniques are used with absolute safety, adapted to the bone density level of each patient and with the help of a specially designed chiropractic table that are adjusted to this kind of condition.

Our discipline, in fact, is associated with vertebral manipulation or adjustments. But we have three important points to make in this regard:

1. The adjustments, performed by certified professionals, are safe and painless.
2.There are specific manual chiropractic techniques and material adapted to osteoporosis.
3.Among the different types of adjustments, the chiropractor chooses the most adapted and appropriate.

In the case of osteoporosis, these are adapted and gentle adjustments to eliminate vertebral subluxations that interrupt the correct communication between the nervous system and the rest of the body, and also blocks the body’s power of self-healing and self-regulation, a capacity that in the case of osteoporosis is essential, given the high risk of fractures associated with this pathology.

A spinal column with a great range of motion is the secret to slowing down and regulating the bone demineralization process as much as possible.

CONTRAINDICATED TO SIT

In the first 10 to 15 minutes after your visit it is contraindicated to sit down.

During this period of time it is necessary to walk to mobilize the joints that we just release and walking also facilitate better joint lubrication and nutrition of the intervertebral discs.

IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS

During the next 24 hours following the first sessions avoid any excessive effort.

Otherwise, the effectiveness of the adjustment received will decrease.

BEFORE AND AFTER

Before and after every visit, avoid all kinds of tension.

Both physical and mental. The more relaxed you are the more benefit you will get from your treatment.

THE APPOINTMENTS

The set appointments must be respected.

They have been established to obtain the best results.

AFTER AN ADJUSTMENT

The sensations that each person may experience after an adjustment may vary without affecting the result and benefit of the treatment in the medium and long term.

After an adjustment, you may experience a feeling of relaxation, having a lot of energy, general well-being, disappearance or relief of symptoms, soreness or pain.

You may sometimes even experience discomfort since the body has to adapt to the new posture and position.
