Are You Losing Height?

One of the most common signs that you need chiropractic care is loss of height. Although with age people often lose height - that doesn't have to be. Most height loss is due to spinal disc thinning and abnormal curves due to years of poor spinal health and bad posture. Chiropractic has been able to halt height loss and even return some lost height to the spine.(1) If you aren't as tall as you used to be, or are concerned with loss of height, come in for a spinal checkup.

One of the findings from the 84-day Skylab mission was that the astronauts grew taller - as much as an inch and three quarters - because the distance between the spinal discs increased in their weightless environment.
