Spondylosis
Repetitive injury to the disc, the facet joints, and the surrounding ligaments may result in increased wear and tear and weight-bearing stress on the spine. This stress can negatively affect the cartilage around the joints and cause calcium to deposit in the tissues around the vertebrae, forming bone spurs. These spurs can compress adjacent nerves, blood vessels and soft tissue resulting in symptoms ranging from minor pain and numbness, to gross sensory loss and muscular atrophy. This condition known as Spondylosis, is a form of arthritis that affects everyone at some point in his or her life. It is also part of the normal ageing process of the spine. However, factors such as previous trauma, lifestyle, and repetitive stress injury influences the time of onset in life.
Chiropractic adjustments and management is very effective in helping spondylosis sufferers manage their condition. At Armstrong Chiropractic Centers we treat individuals with Spondylosis, whether you live in Appleton, Brookfield or surrounding communities. If you believe you have spondylosis and would like to have an evaluation please contact us to set up an appointment.
