Many studies over the years have shown Chiropractic to be safe, highly beneficial with high patient satisfaction and cost effective. A study in the Journal of Human Hypertension showed that patients getting an adjustment to the cervical/neck resulted in “significantly’ lower blood pressure. (1) Other studies: People that saw a Chiropractor first for their back pain had 42% less surgery than those that went to Medical doctors first (2). People that saw a Chiropractor for neck pain missed less work and success was twice as high as for patients seeing a medical doctor.
Low back pain treated with a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) saves 40% on health care costs when compared with care initiated through a Medical doctor (MD), according to a study of 85,000 Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) beneficiaries in Tennessee over a two-year span (3).
Got a headache? “The results of another study showed that spinal manipulative therapy is an effective treatment for tension headaches.” (4) There are many other studies supporting the benefits of Chiropractic care.
Give it at try, your relief might be just a click away.
