If you have pain see a chiropractor. You’ll be glad you did. Chiropractors help pain go away. My medical doctor always wants to give me pills but I don’t want to be on drugs my whole life, I’m young, I ski. I have been happy with the results with chiropractic stuff.
Proper, well-trained chiropractic treatment is a great option.There is a study that I read for my evidence-based practice class (#EBP; #SCIENCE-based) that was in regards to using chiropractic as an alternative to back surgery. One group did 6 months of chiropractic care, with around 60% of patients seeing improvement. patients who went on to have surgery had less than 20% of those patients having sucessfully reduced/eliminated pain. My numbers may be off, but I can promise, not by much. But this does go to show that the research is available.The whole purpose of chiropractic, in my philosophy, is to help a patient get better- whether it is through physical medicine (adjustments, massage, other soft tissue work), working with them on a proper diet and exercise, finding botanicals to treat certain things (and I hope readers realize that many of today’s medicines are derived from botanicals, but taking them more directly from the plant itself is much healthier and oftentimes reduces side effects), or bringing in other modalities, like acupuncture (which research is coming out on that now, too). Natural healing first, and if that doesn’t work, okay- go for the surgeries, go for the medications. My father was on 17– yes, 17!- medications when he passed a little over a year ago. Most of those were to treat side effects of others. One study I read emphasized the fact that though in a few cases the conservative treatments were unsuccessful, the attempt to use them and the delay in seeking allopathic treatment was in no way detrimental to the patients. So, I ask, what is wrong with exhausting conservative (non-pharm, non-invasive) measures before moving on to others?
