Limited mobility is very commonly seen among seniors
Arthritic pain is one of the top reasons why many seniors are unable to walk without being in pain and it is the reason seniors stop enjoy their outdoor activities. This is unfortunate, since overall health tends to decline as mobility declines. Loss of mobility also contributes significantly to depression in seniors, since it tends to prevent social interactions with peers while increasing dependence on others for activities in daily living.
Chiropractic Care Can Alleviate Pain From Arthritis
What may older adults do not realize is that it does not have to be this way. Chiropractic care can alleviate arthritis pain in conjunction with low-intensity exercises such as yoga and Tai chi. These forms of exercise focus on mindful movement, body awareness and balance. The way to prevent hip fractures is by reducing the likelihood of falls, and exercises that improve one’s balance can significantly reduce one’s risk for falls. Preventive maintenance through mind-body awareness exercises and regular chiropractic care should be part of every older American’s healthy lifestyle. Older adults should not feel as though they have to restrict their activity because of arthritis pain.
