Chronic Diseases in America: How Chiropractic Care Can Help Manage Long-Term Health Conditions

Chronic diseases are a growing health concern in the United States, affecting millions of individuals and significantly impacting their quality of life. According to research by Raghupathi, W., & Raghupathi, V. (2018), nearly 45% of Americans—approximately 133 million people—suffer from at least one chronic disease, and the number continues to rise.

At Total Health Chiropractic, we believe in a proactive approach to health and wellness. Understanding chronic diseases and their impact on daily life is essential for making informed health decisions.

What Is a Chronic Disease?

A chronic disease is a long-term physical or mental health condition that:

✔ Lasts more than one year

✔ Causes functional limitations

✔ Requires ongoing monitoring or treatment

These conditions include heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, hypertension, and chronic pain disorders, among others.
