Arthritic Joint Pain Relief in Burlington
Living with stiff, achy joints can make even simple tasks a challenge. Whether it’s climbing stairs, standing from a chair, or opening a jar, joint pain has a way of slowing you down. At The Healing Path Chiropractic and Wellness Centre, we help people across Burlington find ways to move with less discomfort and greater ease.
What Is Arthritic Joint Pain?
Arthritis is characterized by inflammation and gradual degeneration within a joint, resulting in stiffness, swelling, discomfort, and a reduced range of motion. The two most common forms are osteoarthritis, which involves wear-and-tear changes to cartilage and bone, and inflammatory arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis, where the immune system is involved. Both types can make everyday movement harder and interfere with quality of life.
What Causes This Discomfort to Occur?
Arthritic pain may develop due to several factors, including age-related wear and tear, previous injuries or repetitive strain, poor posture or mechanics that overload joints, genetics, inactivity, excess body weight, and autoimmune processes (in inflammatory arthritis).
