Is
chiropractic effective?
Yes. Chiropractic is safe and effective.
Scientific evidence that chiropractic care works is
overwhelming. Over the past 20 years, many controlled
and independent research studies have shown again and
again that chiropractic care is safe and effective
for treating low back pain, neck pain, headaches and
other conditions relating to the spine. Based on these
scientific studies, the consensus is that chiropractic
care is the treatment of choice for most spinal problems.
What kinds of conditions can chiropractic
help?
People most frequently consult a chiropractor
for relief from back pain, neck pain, headaches (migraines),
disc problems, sciatica and leg pain, numbness or tingling
in the extremities, shoulder, arm and hand pain, jaw
pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and knee pain.
Your nervous
system controls every function in your body so theoretically
many conditions may respond favorably
to chiropractic care. Chiropractors do not treat
any disease but restore proper function to the spinal
column
removing pressure or irritation from nerves. This
often results in better health. Our patients COMMONLY
