What Are the Benefits and Risks of Chiropractic Care for Back Pain Relief?
Spinal manipulation and chiropractic care is considered a safe, effective treatment for acute low back pain, the type of sudden injury that results from moving furniture or getting tackled. Acute back pain, which is more common than chronic pain, lasts no more than six weeks and typically gets better on its own.
Research has also shown chiropractic to be helpful in treating neck pain and headaches. In addition, osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia respond to the moderate pressure used both by chiropractors and practitioners of deep tissue massage.
Studies have confirmed the effectiveness of prolotherapy or sclerotherapy for back pain relief, used by some doctors of chiropractic, to treat chronic back pain, the type of back pain that may come on suddenly or gradually and lasts more than three months. The therapy involves various chiropractic techniques to strengthen loosely connected tendons and ligaments.
All treatment is based on an accurate diagnosis of your back pain.  The Dr. Marr should be well informed regarding your medical history, including ongoing medical conditions, current medications, traumatic/surgical history, and lifestyle factors. |
