San Jose Chiropractic Care of San Jose Degenerated Discs Starts with Understanding and Nutritional Protection

March 06, 2018

We all age. Our bodies age. Our finger nails age. Our spinal discs age. Now, that’s something your San Jose chiropractor can do something about though! Spinal discs show aging once they start degenerating. Disc degeneration in a San Jose spine may first be exposed when there is some back pain. Sometimes, disc degeneration proceeds unnoticed until years afterward. New research reveals that disc degeneration for any of us in San Jose may start as early as the teen years. Chiropractic Solutions is all about alleviating any pain and averting any degeneration possible with nutrition and San Jose chiropractic care.

San Jose 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 most common in those in their 2nd to 5th decades of life. It’s declared “natural” to see disc degeneration start in the 2nd decade of life. (1) That indicates that disc degeneration starts in the teen years of life!? Does that shock any of our San Jose chiropractic patients? Chiropractic Solutions is not shocked, necessarily, but Chiropractic Solutions is ready to help the teen San Jose back pain sufferer. Do you have any San Jose teens at home with you? Do they ever talk about having back pain or neck pain?

San Jose DISC DEGENERATION AND AGING: 6th Decade of Life

Grade 4 was more usual in the 6th decade of life. (1) Chiropractic Solutions treats many older patients with chronic low back pain in which disc degeneration plays a role. Chiropractic Solutions knows that older adults with back pain explain that it has affected their life, interfered with their social and recreational outlets, messed with their family relationships. (2) Back pain disrupts their plans for retirement, housing, health, and independence. (3) It’s unpleasant. Chiropractic Solutions gets this, empathizes with our older San Jose back pain sufferers, and offers Cox Technic to help whose goal is a minimum of 50% relief in 30 days with many patients acquiring 50% sooner than that and with a higher percent of relief. Chiropractic Solutions rejoices with our patients as they regain some independence and back pain relief.

WHAT TO DO

Feed your discs early and often. Disc degeneration begins in the 2nd decade of life! More and more news is published about the value of nutrition. Two influential nutrients for discs are chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine sulfate. These two sulfates feed the disc and potentially prevent degeneration and even promote regeneration of the disc’s cartilage. Ask your San Jose chiropractor for more details. Chiropractic Solutions backs preventive care any time possible!
