Are you a Scottsdale or Phoenix, Arizona area resident who experiences persistent joint stiffness and pain? If so, these could be signs that you’re one of the more than approximately 50 million American adults who suffer from arthritis. Arthritis is a very common, painful condition that’s characterized by chronic inflammation of the joints.

According to what we in the healthcare community know today, there are more than 100 different types of arthritis, each caused by different things and characterized by different sensations and types of pain. The most common type of arthritis is osteoarthritis, which is marked by degeneration that results from the breaking and wearing down of cartilage. Osteoarthritis can be caused by both age and overuse, and due to the fact that it’s caused by the breaking down or degeneration of cartilage, it is sometimes referred to as degenerative joint disease.
The second most common type of arthritis is rheumatoid arthritis, which occurs when the immune system begins to attack itself, causing the lining of the joints to swell and become painful. Another common painful arthritic condition is gout, which occurs when the body fails to eliminate uric acid resulting in painful inflammation.
These are just a few of the many different types of arthritis, and if you are experiencing any of the signs and symptoms listed above, we encourage you to come visit us today so we can determine the type you’re suffering from and develop a treatment plan that will help reduce your pain and improve your quality of life.

Depending on your symptoms and the type of arthritis involved, care may include technologies such as cold laser therapy, shockwave therapy, and other supportive therapies aimed at addressing the underlying causes of pain and stiffness.
Some patients may also benefit from Additive Care such as functional rehabilitation, soft tissue therapies, or nutritional and inflammation-based support to help improve movement, stability, and overall joint health.
