Manage Degenerative Joint Disease with Chiropractic Support
Degenerative joint disease, also known as osteoarthritis, is a progressive condition that causes the cartilage in your joints to break down over time. This can result in pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility—especially in the spine, knees, hips, and hands.
At Valhalla Chiropractic in Mesa, AZ, we offer natural, non-invasive treatments to help slow the progression of joint degeneration and improve your daily function.
Common Symptoms of Degenerative Joint Disease
- Joint pain that worsens with activity
- Stiffness, especially in the morning or after rest
