Chiropractic Treatment Valuable for Lessening Back Discomfort
Chiropractic Adjustments Considered Effective for Treating Back Pain in Lincoln
Most of us suffer from back problems at some point in our lives. Experts estimate that nearly 1 out of 3 adults deal with some kind of regular spinal discomfort. Dr. Jerrad Swanson, DC, FMT, DN1 and our talented staff see many back pain cases in our Lincoln office, and we've found that chiropractic care is an effective way to not only help you heal from back pain, it's also a great way to hold off future issues.
Research Proves Chiropractic Therapy Helps With Chronic Back Injuries
A recent study from the University of Utah confirms what our Lincoln patients have reported: your Lincoln chiropractor is the best first option for an event of back problem.
In this article, 747 patients were treated for low back issue. 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 individuals who first saw a chiropractor had fewer advanced imaging tests and fewer surgeries.
Other studies 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. Jerrad Swanson, DC, FMT, DN1 and our team help your body heal with gentle chiropractic adjustments that don't use drugs or risky surgical procedures.
