Disc wear is part of getting older, and for many people it never causes trouble. For others, it brings stiffness and aching that makes daily life harder. Palmercare Chiropractic Woodbridge helps patients manage those changes.
We cannot reverse aging, but we can help the spine move as well as possible and teach you how to protect it.
Over time, discs lose water and height, which can narrow the spaces nerves travel through and stiffen the spine. Years of sitting, lifting, and injury can speed the process.
