Although some people are still skeptical about chiropractic care, even the American Medical Association (AMA) suggests that adjustments should be tried prior to surgery--the one option that should be a last resort.
Dr. Kallio has seen many back pain patients in our Lincoln office who have been in pain for years and who are afraid that they might need an operation for their back pain. Dr. Kallio has had great success in helping patients recover and avoid risky back surgery, and the science backs up our experience.
For example, in a study carried out on about 2,000 Washington State employees who suffered from a back injury while on the job, more than 42% who saw a surgeon first following their injury found themselves having back surgery within three years. That compares to just 1.5% of the people who first sought treatment with chiropractic care, proving that this non-invasive approach is extremely effective at keeping you out of the operating room.
There are options to risky medical procedures. Chiropractic is a proven effective and safe way to improve the function of your spine, which is the root cause of back pain. Dr. Kallio has helped many patients in Lincoln recover. Give our office a call today at (402) 484-5166 for an appointment.
