Geriatric Chiropractic


Geriatric chiropractic care refers to the specific chiropractic treatment and care provided to older adults. As people age, their bodies undergo various changes that can lead to joint stiffness, reduced mobility, and chronic pain. Chiropractic care can be an effective form of treatment for these issues, helping to improve joint mobility, reduce pain, and enhance overall physical function. At Athena Chiropractic in Wilmington, DE, we believe that chiropractic care is for everyone.
