Don’t Just Chase Symptoms, Correct the CAUSE of Arthritis!
You’ve seen dozens of ads for products … or for drugs … that are all supposed to “Reduce arthritis pain!”
Instead of reducing arthritis pain AFTER it has
already come and gets worse, year after year,
you want to attack the problem that’s the
ROOT CAUSE of the arthritis so there’s no
arthritis pain to treat! Wouldn’t you agree?
The first problem that vexes us all is the
unfortunate medical implication in the way
doctors use the term “arthritis.” The truth
is … arthritis is NOT a disease!
It never has been and it never will be! Ever
… under any circumstance … regardless of
what any misguided doctor of any
discipline tries to tell you… even if it’s a
rheumatologist!
Arthritis is a medical term made of two
root words – “arthro” which means
joint. And “itis” which means sore,
inflamed or irritated.
This is exactly why arthritis isn’t a disease.
It’s only a description of a symptom!
That’s all! Arthritis is a term that just
means “sore joint” in a different language.
So, you go to the doctor and you say,
“Gosh, Doc. My knee hurts or my
back hurts.” The doctor asks you
some questions, just to make sure it
actually is a sore joint.
Then the doctor tells you exactly the
same thing you just said, but in Latin –
“You have arthritis!” You said it in
English. The doctor repeated it right back
to you, but in medical-speak.
Then the doctor does what doctors do.
He or she prescribes something to dull the
pain … because you both agree that
you’re experiencing pain.
But there’s absolutely nothing the drug …
or the herb … or the salve … or the
cream … can do to stop what’s actually
causing the pain.
And because you only treat the
symptom, it WILL get worse over
time, as it continues to degenerate,
so you’ll need to use it more and
more often and you’ll need to use
more and more of it.
Now, you might remember that your
doctor showed you a picture where
cartilage was thinning and there
were bone spurs around the joint.
The doc pointed to the X-ray and said,
“See. You have arthritis,” as if it were
actually possible to SEE pain in a joint –
arthritis.
That’s because arthritis is a symptom,
just like the thinning cartilage and bone
spurs are symptoms.
So the obvious question is: What causes the
degeneration and what causes the joint to
hurt? Answer this question and you have the
secret to treating the root cause of arthritis –
osteoarthritis to be specific.
Let’s qualify that.
Arthritis is just a word that describes joint
pain. But lots of things can cause joint pain.
That’s why any time you see the term
“arthritis” you should see another term in
front of it to understand why the joint is
sore.
Rheumatoid arthritis is joint pain caused by
a rheumatoid disease throughout the body.
The person’s immune system “thinks” that
the joint fluids are foreign bacteria or
viruses and it attacks them with a
vengeance.
In the process, it destroys the joint and
pain is the natural result. The rheumatoid
part of this is a disease process. The
arthritis part just describes sore joints.
In psoriatic arthritis, the patient suffers with
psoriasis … in the joint itself! The psoriasis
destroys the joint and it causes the joint to
hurt … arthritis. It’s joint pain caused by
psoriasis.
Let’s break that down. We know that
arthritis means what? … That’s
right… joint pain. So what does
“osteo” mean? It’s a suffix meaning
“bone.”
So putting the two terms together tells us
that the patient suffers joint pain due to …
bone? No disease process here! So what
is it about the bone that’s making the
joint sore? Well …
According to Wikipedia: “… mechanical
stress on joints underlies all osteoarthritis,
with many and varied sources of mechanical
stress, including misalignments of bones …”
According to researchers in the 1980’s,
“Misalignment at a skeletal joint can
increase the rate of wear by up to 7 times.”
This paints the clearest possible picture of
the true nature of osteoarthritis!
Misalignments in joints create excess wear.
The excess wear results in osteoarthritis.
This process can happen in the spine or in
any other joint in the body!
So, what’s the most obvious way to correct
the root cause of the osteoarthritis problem?
It couldn’t be more obvious! Correct the
misalignments! When you remove
misalignments, you restore normal wear and
osteoarthritis doesn’t develop.
And depending on how long the joint has
been degenerating due to the
misalignment, it can be reversed! And
even if the degeneration can’t be
completely reversed, the arthritis … the
joint pain … can be reduced and even
eliminated in many cases.
In fact, this is exactly what chiropractors
have been doing since 1895!
But there are all kinds of chiropractors out
there. What’s the best way to go?
Any chiropractic care is better than none at
all. Every time, without exception! But the
most precision form of chiropractic we know
of is instrument adjusting. We think the
Activator Method is best … with the Impulse
Method a close second.
Find an Activator doctor at
www.activator.com
or an Impulse doctor at
www.goimpulse.com.
Here at Desert Rose Chiropractic and
Light Chiropractic we have one of the
few doctors in the country fully certified
in both techniques with 28 years’
experience in Activator, and holding only
the fourth full certification issued in
Arizona for the Impulse technique.
And we’re not the only ones who prefer instrument adjusting over traditional popping and cracking methods:• “I’m just amazed that this little
instrument made such a big difference in one day!” says A.S. of Phoenix
• “I was really skeptical the first time you adjusted me with that little thing,” says R.T. “But it works really well!”
• “I’ll never go back to that popping and cracking kind of chiropractic again!” says S.F. of Show Low
• “I’ve never been to a chiropractor that was so thorough before,” says D.H. of Phoenix.
• “Thanks for working on my thumb. My doctor told me it was arthritis and I’d just have to live with it. But I don’t have any more pain now,” reported C. H. of Phoenix.
• “The knee feels a lot better! Thanks. I didn’t know you could adjust knees,” said J. M. of Show Low.
You might experience similar relief with precision instrument adjusting delivered by our nationally recognized expert. It’s as easy as making a phone call.
But we still take it one step further. Low
level laser therapy is one of the best
documented new technologies in the past
decade for controlling and minimizing the
inflammation and irritation of arthritic
pain, and to accelerate the healing of
damaged tissue.
When we use laser therapy in conjunction
with precision instrument adjusting, we
accelerate the stabilization process far
beyond the capability of chiropractic
alone.
It’s all well and good to take pain killers for arthritis PAIN … a symptom … but you need to attack the CAUSE of that pain! Correct it at its source! TODAY! Don’t let osteoarthritis ruin your life even one more day!
