Redondo Beach CA Chiropractor Explains Height Loss With Age

When people think of back problems in Redondo Beach CA, probably the first image that comes to mind is the stooped posture often seen in older people. At the Catalina Chiropractic Center, we want our patients to know that this painful ailment is not an inevitable part of aging, but is something that can be treated through chiropractic.

Spinal Curvature in Redondo Beach CA

The most common cause of spinal curvature in the elderly is osteoporosis. This disease is the result of bone breaking down without enough new growth to replace it. Over time, the vertebrae become so weak that they can be cracked easily by common movements with the patient hardly even aware of it. All those little cracks add up to the vertebrae collapsing, causing the afflicted to lose height and stoop over.

Anybody can get osteoporosis, but it is more common in women. One good way to prevent it is to maintain high levels of calcium intake. But at our office, we can also prescribe therapeutic exercises for strengthening the muscles supporting the spine and provide safe non-invasive pain relief.

The Catalina Chiropractic Center is located at 1919 S Catalina Ave, Redondo Beach, CA, 90277. To schedule an appointment, visit our website or give us a call at (310) 378-7246.
