Arthritis Treatment in South Austin

Our All-Natural Approach to Arthritis Treatment

We adopt a unique approach to pain relief that involves use of a number of techniques to relieve pain and restore the mobility of a patient, including chiropractic care, rehabilitative exercises, weight loss, and massage therapy. The primary aim is to relieve inflammation and pain and allow a patient to perform their day-to-day tasks independently in a pain-free manner.

When you visit a chiropractor at HealthFirst Spine & Wellness, they develop an individualized treatment plan keeping your health condition and your expectations under consideration. The main goal of the treatment plan is to provide you complete pain relief. Once the pain has been relieved, we provide supportive care to keep the arthritic joint as healthy and as functional as possible.

The arthritis treatment plan focuses on two things:

• Reducing Inflammation — This is achieved through use of massage therapy and rehabilitative exercises. Individuals who cannot exercise due to excessively swollen joints are recommended to use ice packs or apply heat to relieve inflammation and pain.
• Reducing Stress on the Joints — Chiropractic is the cornerstone stress-relieving technique that not only improves the range of motion of arthritic joints, but also improves muscle tone and strength. In addition to this, our chiropractors also use trigger-point therapy, massage, and active release technique to relieve the pain and improve joint function.
