Groton Chiropractic Care of Groton Degenerated Discs Starts with Understanding and Nutritional Protection
We all age. Our bodies age. Our finger nails age. Our spinal discs age. Now, there is something your Groton chiropractor can help with though! Spinal discs exhibit aging after they start degenerating. Disc degeneration in a Groton spine may first be discovered once you feel some back pain. Occasionally, disc degeneration goes ignored until years later. New research suggests that disc degeneration for any of us in Groton may start as early as the teen years. Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office is all about alleviating any pain and averting any degeneration possible with nutrition and Groton chiropractic care.
Groton DISC DEGENERATION AND AGING: 2nd to 5th Decades of Life
In spine radiology, the Pfirrmann classification differentiates levels of disc degeneration. Grade 1 is less degeneration. Grade 5 is really bad degeneration. Researchers analyzed the MRI images of 653 patients of all ages. Grade 3 degeneration is very common in those in their 2nd to 5th decades of life. It’s declared “natural” to find that disc degeneration starts in the 2nd decade of life. (1) That indicates that disc degeneration begins in the teen years of life!? Does that shock any of our Groton chiropractic patients? Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office is not shocked, necessarily, but Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office is prepared to treat the teen Groton back pain sufferer. Do any Groton teens live at home with you? Do they ever talk about experiencing back pain or neck pain?

WHAT TO DO
Feed your discs early and often. Disc degeneration begins in the 2nd decade of life! More and more news evolves about the value of nutrition. Two positive nutrients for discs are chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine sulfate. These two sulfates feed the disc and potentially avert degeneration and even promote regeneration of the disc’s cartilage. Ask your Groton chiropractor for more details.
