Who can benefit from Chiropractic care?
The vast majority of patients who seek chiropractic health care do so for complaints of the musculoskeletal system, most often for conditions affecting the spine such as back pain, neck pain and headaches. Research studies have demonstrated that chiropractic is effective in treating these conditions. Chiropractic has an excellent safety record and is recognized as one of the safest drug-free, non-invasive therapies available for the treatment of these ailments.
In cases such as lower back pain, chiropractic care may be the preferred method of treatment. Where other medical problems exist, chiropractic care may support medical treatment by relieving the musculoskeletal aspects associated with them. Chiropractic care may also be palliative, providing symptomatic relief of the musculoskeletal disorders associated with chronic conditions.
