Although arthritis can be a part of the aging process, arthritis pain does not have to be a part of your life. Whether you suffer from joint pain arthritis, osteoarthritis, or rheumatoid arthritis, Butler Chiropractic Clinic can help. Our Flower Mound chiropractor Dr. Randy Butler has extensive experience using gentle and effective chiropractic treatments for all types of conditions and, due to its widespread prevalence, arthritis is one of the more common issues we treat. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all philosophy to health and wellness care, we create individualized treatment plans that aim to address and correct each person’s specific needs.

One of the overall needs for people suffering from arthritis is pain relief. Arthritis is marked by an inflammation of one or more joints, which produces stiffness and pain. The swelling may also be accompanied by redness, visible swelling, and a limited range of motion. Joint pain arthritis can have several causes, and our first goal is to perform a consultation and examination to determine if underlying issues are contributing to the condition. We can treat rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis as part of an overall senior care wellness plan or we can adapt a plan that includes other treatment methods to help with additional issues.

Rheumatoid arthritis is another condition not only reserved for our senior care plans. This condition can strike people of all ages, resulting in the body’s immune system attacking the joint capsule lining. The lining, in turn, often becomes swollen and the condition can continue to progress, eventually damaging or destroying the joint’s bone and cartilage.

Physiotherapy and lifestyle advice are two more services we offer for joint pain and rheumatoid arthritis. Our methods consist of intersegmental traction, muscle stimulation and Chiropractic Manipulation. Rehabilitation programs that include gentle stretching and other exercises can also help, as can our Doctors' lifestyle advice. Maintaining a healthy weight and getting regular exercise are helpful for rheumatoid arthritis as well as joint pain arthritis, and our chiropractor can provide health coaching to ensure you achieve both.
