Phases of Subluxation Degeneration

Aging is a natural part of life and something we must all go through. You will discover that you do not have to go through the aging process alone or with extreme discomfort. Over time, misalignments of the spine will occur if not taken care of, and our nervous system does not communicate with other areas of body as well as it once did. Chiropractic care is designed to find solutions to these health issues and strengthen the spine, so you can enjoy living in the moment rather than sitting on the sidelines. Many people, whether old or young, experience subluxation degeneration due to poor spinal health, but the sooner you embrace chiropractic care, the sooner you can embark on a journey towards optimal health.  We’re on a mission to become your North Denver chiropractor, and continue to serve our community with a focus on optimal health.

PHASE I DEGENERATION

The first phase of spinal degeneration is not painful and often goes unnoticed. Over time, the normal curves of the spine alter and start to show changing spaces between the discs. While this doesn’t mean damage has been done, it is a sign that there could be damage in the future. Chiropractic care recognizes this phase of degeneration and works to correct it and prevent further misalignment.

PHASE II DEGENERATION

In the second phase, many people still do not realize they have spinal degeneration, even though the space between discs continues to narrow and stiffness and aches start to develop. You may also notice your range of motion is not as extensive as it once was. Chiropractic care helps to restore prior range of motion as well as improving overall body function.

PHASE III DEGENERATION

During the third stage, there may be permanent damage to the disc and the spine may have curvature that is abnormal. While the degeneration has worsened, chiropractic care can still make a positive impact through spinal adjustments by slowing the process down and relieving some of the issues you may be having.

PHASE IV DEGENERATION

In the final stage of spinal degeneration, many notice their quality of life has decreased due to issues such as limited range of motion and permanent damage to the vertebrae. However, there is sometimes relief during this stage when getting the proper chiropractic care at Cardinal Chiropractic – even in phase IV. Applying the best techniques for spinal degeneration can help relieve pain and improve overall nerve and body functions.
