Treatment Techniques That Address Adults' Issues
At Caldwell Chiropractic Center PC, we understand the changing nature of the adult body. As you age, your spine undergoes many changes, and those changes can lead to pain, discomfort, and other serious issues.
Our treatment techniques focus on the underlying problems. Unlike less effective treatments that only address symptoms (and frequently leave the causes untreated and uncorrected), our chiropractic care involves your participation and aims to be truly effective and long-lasting.

Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Adults
Many of the problems faced by adults are due to the way body tissue ages. Our spinal discs, facet joints, muscles, ligaments, and other spinal tissues become weaker, less hydrated, more fibrotic, and less able to withstand daily stress.
You may experience pain from spinal degeneration (arthritis), tissue damage from relatively mild events, or longer healing times for injuries.
We've found that routine chiropractic care can provide our adult patients with a wide variety of benefits that make life more comfortable.
- Spinal and extremity pain relief
- Decreased stiffness and muscular spasms
- Increased mobility and range of motion
- Increased balance and coordination
- Increased sense of well-being
- Increased energy
- Enhanced tissue healing
- Decreased tissue inflammation
- Increased joint health
- Decreased arthritis and arthritic joint pain
- Minimized spinal stress and subsequent degeneration
- Minimized risk of fall injuries
Studies That Support Chiropractic Care for Adults
You may wonder what the medical literature has to say about adults receiving ongoing chiropractic care. A recent study looked at the health of 414 elderly patients (average age of 80) and compared those who received chiropractic care to those who did not. It found the following:
- 87% of those who used chiropractic care rated their health as good or excellent compared with only 68% in the non-chiropractic group
- 13% of those who used chiropractic care rated their health as fair or poor compared with 32% in the non-chiropractic group
- 44% of those who used chiropractic care reported having arthritis compared with 66% in the non-chiropractic care group
The study found that those who used chiropractic care were more likely to do strenuous levels of exercise.
The study's follow-up after three years confirmed that regular chiropractic care may play an important part in maintaining good health well into one's later years.
- Less than 5% of those who used chiropractic care used a nursing home, while a staggering 48% of those who did not use chiropractic care did use a nursing home
- Only 26% of those who used chiropractic care were hospitalized compared with 48% of those in the non-chiropractic group

Improved Balance and Coordination
One of the other benefits of chiropractic care for adults is that it can address problems in balance and coordination that develop during aging.
There are receptors located in the joints of your upper cervical spine that provide your brain with the information it needs for coordination and balance. If these receptors are damaged, you may experience impairment.
"Mechanoreceptors in cervical facet joints provide significant input regarding the position of the head in relation to the body. With aging, mild defects impair mechanoreceptors' function. Loss of proprioception can also involve the legs, especially with diabetes. With decreased proprioception, body positioning in space is impeded, and the patient becomes reliant on vision to know the location of a limb. To compensate for the loss of proprioception in the legs, the feet are kept wider apart than usual. Steps become irregular and uneven in length. As impairment increases, the patient becomes unable to compensate. With severe loss of proprioception, the patient is unable to get up from a chair or rise after a fall without assistance."
— Dr. Caranasos, MD
Studies have shown that stimulating the joint receptors with chiropractic care can restore or normalize their function, and that can lead to improvements in balance and coordination.
Decreased Fall Injuries
Studies from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that falls are responsible for 90% of the 850,000 bone fractures that occur annually in Americans over the age of 65. Chiropractic care can help reduce the chances of a dangerous fall in several ways:
- Improved cervical joint receptor activity — Our cervical spine adjustive techniques can improve your balance and coordination.
- Improved strength, flexibility, balance, mobility, and coordination — We'll help you with stretching and exercise programs.
- Improved nutrition, increased energy, and an increased sense of well-being — We'll help you establish a healthier diet through nutritional counseling.
Increased Health and Well-Being
Freedom from pain can improve your quality of life. Stiff joints and nagging pain may cause you to miss out on the things you love to do, such as golfing, gardening, or playing with your grandchildren. Our therapies can restore the mobility that you've lost and minimize or eliminate your pain.
When you come to Caldwell Chiropractic, we'll use hands-on manipulation and other effective treatments to bring your spine and musculoskeletal structure into proper alignment. Your body will learn to heal itself without medication or surgery. Our chiropractic manipulation can guide joints restricted by tissue injuries into greater mobility.
We recommend regular chiropractic care for anyone over 40. Let us help you increase the quality of your life. You'll be able to live life to its fullest, so call today for a free consultation about personalized chiropractic care.
Customized Adult Chiropractic Care Plans
We don't believe in a cookie-cutter approach to chiropractic care. Even two patients suffering from the same condition have different bodies, so they'll respond to the same treatment differently.
You can rely on Caldwell Chiropractic to design a care plan based on your body, your condition, and your needs. We'll meet with you and discuss your short- and long-term objectives, and we'll create a strategy that helps you reach those goals.
Whether you're seeking relief from pain, improved mobility, or better overall health, we can help. Call us today
for your free consultation.
