Chiropractic Therapy Effective for Reducing Low Back Pain

Chiropractic Spinal Manipulation Reported as Effective during Treatment of Low Back Pain in Roselle

Most of us suffer from back ache at some point in our lives. Experts estimate that nearly 1 out of 3 adults deal with some kind of regular spinal injury. Dr. Ahmed and our talented staff see many back pain cases in our Roselle office, and we've found that chiropractic care is a highly effective way to not only help you recover from back pain, it's also an excellent way to hold off future problems.

Research Supports Chiropractic Therapy Helps With Chronic Back Issues

A recent article from the University of Utah verifies what our Roselle patients have reported: your Roselle chiropractor is the best first choice for an episode of back discomfort.

In this paper, 747 patients were treated for low back pain. Each person was evaluated based on the first person they sought treatment with, whether it was a primary care physician, a chiropractor, or a physiotherapist.

What the authors discovered is that the subjects who first saw a chiropractor had less advanced imaging tests and fewer surgeries.

Other papers have found the same results. A 2012 study reported that chiropractic patients had the best functional recovery and pain relief for chronic back pain.

Chiropractic works by restoring the natural, pain-free function of your spine. Dr. Ahmed and our team help your body heal with gentle chiropractic adjustments that don't use drugs or risky surgical procedures.
