Your Back Pain Can Be Baffling- Chiropractic Care Isn't!

I read an interesting article recently. It stated that the second most common reason for patients to see their doctors (after the common cold) is back pain. In fact, about 80% of Americans suffer from some variation of back pain, whether it is mildly irritating or chronically excruciating.

I am baffled that this article neglects to even mention, save for one measly sentence at the tail-end, the staggering evidence to support the revolutionary non-surgical benefits to chiropractic care. In our office we utilize chiropractic biophysics, perhaps the most research-based and supported techniques used for diagnosis and treatment of back pain. We also implement state-of-the-art technology to help identify the root cause of the condition and treat the underlying problem, not just relieve pain. These results are practical, permanent and affordable.

This article even stated that the number one-and perhaps only-priority for medical doctors treating back pain is to temporarily reduce pain symptoms to the point of tolerance. It even went on to state that identifying the underlying cause is more often than not overlooked in any treatment process, and that while medical doctors try not to over-medicate, they are often quick to prescribe opioids and epidurals to relieve suffering.

This is a ludicrous oversight to the benefits of chiropractic treatments. We use many different diagnostic tools and techniques to help patients identify the cause of their pain, and more importantly we take steps to correct the problem and eliminate the need for harmful medications and expensive, unnecessary and life-threatening surgeries. If you one of the millions of Americans suffering from back pain, don't just sit back and accept what traditional medicine is telling you-which is that your pain is 'one of medicine's most baffling problems' and there are limited options for you to get relief and results. You have options-whether your pain is mildly irritating or chronically excruciating
