Abstract
Chiropractic care for older adults can play a crucial role in addressing age-related musculoskeletal issues and improving overall health and mobility. As people age, they often experience a decline in joint flexibility, muscle strength, and bone density, which can lead to conditions like osteoarthritis, spinal degeneration, and chronic pain. Chiropractic treatment offers a non-invasive, drug-free approach to managing these problems and enhancing the quality of life for older adults.
