Dr. Eric Razz is a chiropractor in Campbell, CA with over 34 years of experience. He knows that with regular adjustments, improvement in diet, and an exercise regiment, you can experience a reduction in pain, decreased inflammation, improvement in range of motion and flexibility.

An adjustment will help with the realignment of your spine to improve its functions with both communications with the nervous system and joints. Your diet will reduce foods that aid in inflammation and exercise will help to increase strength and flexibility. 

There are three types of arthritis.

Osteoarthritis, which affects the flexibility of your joint cartilage. This is a degenerative form that will eventually lead to a reduction in cartilage. The friction due to the reduction of cartilage leads to stiffness, swelling and pain.

There are a handful of short-term solutions to dealing with this form of arthritis such as applying hot or cold therapies, losing weight, staying active, and strengthening muscles. Chiropractic care will restore the alignment with your joints which will improve the cartilage and lubricant deficiencies.

Rheumatoid & Psoriatic Arthritis, chronic inflammation in the joints and tissue that surrounds them. This inflammation is caused by a reduction in joint tissue and fluids. Realigning the spine with spinal manipulation; an adjustment, will improve fluids and blood flood to the joints reducing the friction which ultimately leads to a reduction in inflammation and decreases the pain associated with arthritis.

Arthritis Treatments

There are several types of treatments and often it’s a combination of treatments that will work best at relieving the pain and improving joint function.

Medications are often used, such as pain killers and anti-inflammatory medications. While these may offer you the relief you desire using them for an extended period of time has many harmful side effects and can become extremely addictive.

Exercise such as low impact aerobic exercises like walking, bicycling, swimming, or elliptical, will help to improve the range of motion and strengthen your muscles around the joints.

An anti-inflammatory diet will help to reduce the inflammation throughout your body. This includes foods such as fruits, green leafy vegetables, fatty fish, and nuts. As well as adding herbs such as aloe, ginger, turmeric, and green tea.
