In today’s world, it’s easy to replace what’s broken. But when it comes to your knees, hips, and shoulders, replacement surgery shouldn’t be your first option. At Lifetime Chiropractic in Albuquerque, NM, we help people in Albuquerque NM find lasting joint relief by preserving and restoring what nature gave them.
The Joint Replacement Surge—And Why to Pause
Hip and knee replacements have surged dramatically over the last few decades. While some surgeries are necessary, many could be avoided with earlier intervention. These procedures come with serious risks: infection, prolonged recovery, and limited mobility. The good news? You may have other options—starting with chiropractic care.
Understanding Why Joints Break Down
Osteoarthritis is the leading cause of joint degeneration, fueled by wear-and-tear, postural stress, inflammation, and poor nutrition. As cartilage breaks down, movement becomes painful and limited. But degeneration isn’t just about aging—it’s often about alignment, movement, and lifestyle.
Are You at Risk?
- Poor posture can cause uneven pressure and joint imbalance.
- Inactivity reduces joint lubrication and leads to stiffness.
- Nutrient deficiencies impair joint repair and regeneration.
- Old injuries can trigger long-term wear without you realizing it.
What Chiropractic Can Do
Gentle chiropractic adjustments improve joint mobility, restore alignment, and support your nervous system’s ability to heal. When combined with a healthy lifestyle, movement, and nutrition, chiropractic care becomes a powerful tool for joint preservation—no scalpel required.
Before—or After—Surgery
Even if joint replacement becomes necessary, chiropractic care still plays an important role. Many patients in Albuquerque NM turn to Lifetime Chiropractic for post-operative recovery, improved mobility, and long-term joint maintenance.
