August is Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Awareness Month

This month, we’re shining a light on Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), a genetic condition that affects muscle strength and movement. SMA is caused by a genetic mutation that impacts motor neurons, leading to muscle weakness and atrophy.

What You Need to Know:

  • Symptoms: Muscle weakness, difficulty with movement, and breathing problems.
  • Treatment: While there’s no cure for SMA, therapies and support can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life, and although chiropractic care cannot cure SMA, it can assist in managing pain, improving mobility, and supporting overall wellness.

At Hinterland Chiropractor, we support raising awareness about SMA and its impact. Let’s join together to spread the word and support those affected. Together, we can make a difference!

Your health is our priority! Call us for an appointment on 07 5527 3133 or come to our clinic at 7 Price Street, Nerang.
