We all age. Our bodies age. Our finger nails age. Our spinal
discs age. Now, that is something your
West Palm Beach chiropractor can help with though!
Spinal discs display aging after they start
degenerating. Disc degeneration in a West Palm Beach spine may first be exposed
when you feel some back pain. Sometimes, disc degeneration goes unnoticed
until years later. New research suggests
that disc degeneration for any of us in West Palm Beach may begin
as early as the teen years. Moses Chiropractic is all for relieving
any pain and averting any degeneration possible with nutrition
and West Palm Beach chiropractic care.
West Palm Beach DISC DEGENERATION AND AGING: 2nd to 5th
Decades of Life
In spine radiology, the Pfirrmann classification defines
levels of disc degeneration. Grade 1 is less degeneration. Grade 5 is severe degeneration. Researchers studied the MRI
images of 653 patients of all ages. Grade 3 degeneration is very common
in those in their 2nd to 5th decades of life. It’s stated
to be “natural” to see disc degeneration start in the 2nd decade of life. (1) That signifies
that disc degeneration begins in the teen years of life!? Does
that shock any of our West Palm Beach chiropractic patients? Moses Chiropractic
is not shocked, necessarily, but Moses Chiropractic is ready
to treat the teen West Palm Beach back pain sufferer. Do any West Palm Beach teens live at home
with you? Do they ever talk about experiencing back
pain or neck pain?
West Palm Beach DISC DEGENERATION AND AGING: 6th Decade
of Life
Grade 4 was more common in the sixth decade
of life. (1) Moses Chiropractic sees many older
patients with chronic low back pain in which disc degeneration is part of the problem. Moses Chiropractic knows
that older adults with back pain explain that it has affected
their life, interfered with their social and recreational
outlets, complicated their family relationships. (2) Back
pain upsets their plans for retirement, housing,
health, and independence. (3) It is difficult.
Moses Chiropractic gets this, empathizes with our older
West Palm Beach back pain sufferers, and offers Cox Technic to help whose
goal is a minimum of 50% relief in 30 days with many patients getting
50% more quickly than that and with a higher
percent of relief. Moses Chiropractic rejoices with our patients
as they regain some independence and back pain relief.
WHAT TO DO
Feed your discs early and often. Disc degeneration
starts in the 2nd decade of life! More and more news is
published about the value of nutrition. Two positive
nutrients for discs are chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine sulfate. These two
sulfates nourish the disc and potentially prevent
degeneration and even stimulate regeneration of the disc’s
cartilage. Ask your West Palm Beach chiropractor for more details.
Moses Chiropractic supports preemptive
care whenever possible!
