As your Williamson chiropractor, I
have seen firsthand the positive
impact that chiropractic care
can have on various types of
patients). From those dealing
with back pain to office
workers dealing with
the effects of
extended sitting, and even
athletes wanting to get
back to their sport and/or improve
their “game”,
chiropractic treatment can
provide
lots benefits.
In this blog, check out
these three key
reasons why you should
consider seeing a
chiropractor at
Apple Country Chiropractic for your Williamson back pain and other
musculoskeletal
issues.
CHIROPRACTORS REDUCE BACK
PAIN
One of the top reasons people
seek out
Williamson chiropractic care is to
address back pain.
According to a national cross-sectional survey
published in Chiropractic
& Manual
Therapies, 62% of patients reported
seeking
chiropractic care for back pain.
Furthermore, a systematic
review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled
trials reported
that spinal manipulative therapy (a
common technique utilized by
chiropractors) was effective in
lowering chronic low
back pain for 92% and
boosting mobility for 80% compared to
other treatments or no treatment what so ever. (1) This evidence suggests
that seeing a chiropractor
can give relief for those suffering from back
pain.
Bonus: Our Williamson
chiropractic practice includes
use of The Cox® Technic System of Spinal
Pain Management that has over 55 years
of documented clinical experience,
biomechanical research, and funded
research (NIH, HRSA) performed with well-known
research facilities like Hines VA, Loyola Stritch
School of Medicine, Palmer,
National University of Health Sciences, Auburn,
etc. Check

CHIROPRACTIC LOWERS RELIANCE ON OPIOID PAIN
MEDICATIONS
In recent years, there has
been growing
worry about the overuse and
possible harm of
opioid pain medications. However,
research has shown
that chiropractic care may be an effective
option for managing
musculoskeletal pain without
relying on these strong
drugs. A retrospective observational study
published in Chiropractic &
Manual Therapies found
that older Medicare beneficiaries with
spinal pain who received
chiropractic care were less likely to take
prescription opioids compared to those who
didn’t receive
chiropractic care. (2) This is an important finding, as it highlights
the potential role of chiropractors
like yours at Apple Country Chiropractic
in positively addressing the
opioid epidemic.
CHIROPRACTIC PATIENTS ARE SATISFIED WITH
CARE
Besides
lowering
pain and reliance on medication,
many patients describe
high levels of satisfaction
with their chiropractic care.
The same national cross-sectional survey
described earlier stated
that 87% of patients reported being satisfied or very
satisfied with their general
experience of chiropractic care.
Another study distributed in the
British Medical Journal showed that
chiropractic care was associated
with significantly higher
satisfaction scores compared to usual medical care
for low back pain. (3) This suggests
that not only does chiropractic care
provide effective
treatment, but it also advances a
positive patient experience. Bonus:
Our Cox® Technic care has
documented patient satisfaction in
case reports and clinical studies!
