Dr. Kenya Of Kenya Chiropractic a Chiropractor in Spartanburg, SC On Osteoarthritis 

In their book Clinically Oriented Anatomy, Drs. Moore, Dalley and Agur has this to say about Degenerative Joint Disease; “These degenerative changes in joints result in the articular cartilage becoming a less effective shock absorber and lubricated surface” (pg 28). Some of the causes of osteoarthritis is trauma. Once the joint has lost its lining on the cartilage, any movement in the joint becomes increasingly vulnerable to the repeated friction that occurs during joint movement. At this stage many make the mistake of refraining from using the joint. Henceforth they lose motion in the joint. The health of a joint is in its movement. The joint gets its nutrition from the movement of synovial fluid in the joint. It is also how the joint gets rid of the waste products and refreshes its surface via the synovial fluid. This is most possible via movement in the joint. While the joint needs to be protected it is of paramount importance that the joint be moved. No wonder the joint of the jaw (TMJ) is the least joint affected by arthritis because it moves all the time. Subluxations restricts joint movement and hence arthritic changes. Having regular chiropractic care will remove subluxations and joint restrictions resulting into healthy joints and healthy life. At Kenya chiropractic we analyze the spine to detect the subluxations to free your joints restriction. Dr. Kenya is located at 8301 Ashville Hwy, Boiling Springs, Sc 29316.
