Tonal chiropractic techniques
Although there are many risk factors (such as age, family history, and obesity) associated with the development of osteoarthritis (OA), only trauma is known to cause OA. The neuromuscular system, through CNS-controlled afferent-efferent programs, controls the amount and kind of movement occurring at a joint, so it is this system that is ultimately responsible for ensuring that joint tissues are not damaged to the point of developing OA during normal day-to-day activities. Tonal chiropractic techniques concern themselves with influencing the controlling systems of the body.
