Cartilage is the part of the joint that cushions the ends of bones. - Cartilage breakdown causes bones to rub against each other, causing pain and loss of movement
- Most commonly affecting middle-aged and older people, OA can range from very mild to very severe
- It affects hands and weight-bearing joints such as knees, hips, feet and the back
Treatment Chiropractic care works to relieve symptoms of osteoarthritis and reduce pain and the loss of joint mobility.
