Joint Dysfunction

Moving your joints helps to keep them functioning and well lubricated. When you do not move them enough, joint dysfunction can arise. The symptoms of joint dysfunction include stiffness, pain, tightness, the breakdown of cartilage, and changing the way you move to compensate for problems. Joint dysfunction typically occurs along the spine and can be caused by poor posture, tightness of the muscles, injury, excessive scar tissue, or an imbalance of muscles. In order to fix joint dysfunction, our North Dallas chiropractors use chiropractic adjustments and other therapies. They might also give you some exercises to do at home to increase your strength.
