October is National Chiropractic Health Month
Chiropractic: Joint Efforts
Chiropractic services can support joint health and functioning, contributing to more movement, better health and enhanced quality of life.
Every day, our joints play a fundamental role in keeping our bodies moving and able to do everything from completing daily tasks and enjoying leisure activities to achieving athletic feats of wonder. When they function well, we barely notice them; but with age, our joints become more prone to injury and wear and tear, which can lead to pain and functional limitations.
This October, during National Chiropractic Health Month 2026, ACA members and doctors of chiropractic nationwide will raise awareness of the importance of joint health by sharing health promotion and injury prevention strategies. They will also highlight how chiropractors can help people manage joint pain and injuries, and enhance joint function, with an evidence-based, nondrug approach.
Visit the NCHM 2026 campaign toolkit at acatoday.org/NCHM for more resources and ideas on how to participate.
