ADDING Richmond CHIROPRACTIC CARE

At one health center that integrated chiropractic care into their services, a chronic pain patient with a long history of pain found relief when chiropractic care was added to her overall care approach. Most recently, she experienced neck and back pain after a car accident 3 years earlier. Additionally, she noted knee pain and pain due to over 20 surgeries in her lifetime, depression, opioid dependence, and low quality of life. After 6 months of chiropractic care which incorporated manipulation for neck and back pain as well as nutrition and exercise recommendations, she described improvement in pain and quality of life plus cessation of opioid pain medications.

Chiropractic care on a consistent basis was more effective in decreasing the total number of days annually that patients suffered troubling low back pain. Yes, these patients had more chiropractic visits, but they experienced less back pain. The researchers suggested that maintenance care be taken into consideration a low back pain prevention option.
