Motion And Nutrition Of Discs And Joints

  1. Chiropractors check the spine regularly to evaluate the motion of joints
  2. Good Motion is essential for the health and nutrition of discs and joints because it permits the exchange of nutrients, fluid and waste.
  3. Fibrosis occurs in motionless joints and can lead to stiffness and degeneration
  4. Motion also reduces the formation of fibrosis (scar tissue)
  5. Without movements, discs and joints may degenerate quickly

Joints Can Have Disturbed Biomechanics Without Pain and/or Other Symptoms

  1. Disturbed biomechanics:  1) Alter load distribution, Increase risk of injury 2) Accelerate degeneration, 3) Reduce optimal performance
