Bursitis is the inflammation of a bursa. A bursa is a closed, fluid-filled sac that works as a cushion and gliding surface to reduce friction between tissues of the body. The major bursae (this is the plural of bursa) are located next to the tendons near the large joints, such as in the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees.

Chiropractic Care is a natural way to successfully treat bursitis. Chiropractors can take the excessive pressure off the bursa and the tendons by their focus on adjustments/manipulations in order to:

• Relieve Pain
• Decrease Inflammation
• Prevent aggravation of the existing condition
• Promote fast natural healing
• “Repair’ underlying root cause of your bursitis condition
• Re-align overall structural balance of the body
