Celebrating National Chiropractic Health Month

Dr. Sebastian Bergeron of Nord Ro Clinic in Chicago is joining doctors of chiropractic nationwide this October to celebrate National Chiropractic Health Month (NCHM). With the theme “Joint Efforts,” NCHM 2026 highlights the importance of maintaining healthy joints throughout life to support movement, independence and overall well-being.

The human body contains more than 300 joints that make movement possible—from walking the dog and climbing stairs to playing sports and gardening. Healthy joints help people remain physically active, and regular movement is one of the most important contributors to health and longevity. As we age, protecting joint health becomes increasingly important for maintaining mobility, independence and quality of life.

Doctors of chiropractic help patients improve and maintain joint function through an evidence-based, nondrug approach to health and wellness. In addition to hands-on treatment for musculoskeletal conditions, chiropractors provide guidance on exercise, injury prevention and healthy lifestyle habits that help support joint health over time.

“People often don’t think about their joints until something starts to hurt,” said Dr. Bergeron. “National Chiropractic Health Month is an opportunity to remind people that healthy joints are essential to living an active, fulfilling life. By taking steps to care for your joints today, you can help protect your mobility and independence for years to come.”
