Chiropractic Care Helpful for Reducing Low Back Issues

Most of us suffer from back pain at some point in our lives. Researchers estimate that nearly 1 out of 3 adults deal with some kind of regular spinal discomfort. Haque Chiropractic Inc. and our talented staff see many back pain cases in our Livermore 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 a great way to prevent future episodes.

Research Proves Chiropractic Adjustments Helps With Chronic Back Discomfort

A recent study from the University of Utah verifies what our Livermore patients have experienced: your Livermore chiropractor is the best first choice for an episode of back issue.

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

What the researchers discovered is that the individuals who first saw a chiropractor had fewer advanced imaging tests and fewer surgical procedures.

Other studies have found the same results. A 2012 study found 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. Haque Chiropractic Inc. and our team help your body heal with gentle chiropractic adjustments that don't use drugs or risky surgical procedures.
