When you are attempting to improve inflammation and painful joints, you have to consider all of three of these stressors. Chiropractic can be very helpful in reducing inflammation and making your joints much less painful.

Perhaps bending and squatting more than usual in your garden? Sitting too much and not exercising enough? As far as mental stressors go, do you have more stressful deadlines happening at work than normal, frequent fights with your spouse or kids causing tension and anxiety?
