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 pain. TJ Delorie and our talented staff see many back pain cases in our Olympia office, and we've found that chiropractic care is a highly effective way to not only help you heal from back pain, it's also an excellent way to avoid future problems.
Research Shows Chiropractic Helps With Chronic Back Pain
A recent study from the University of Utah confirms what our Olympia patients have experienced: your Olympia chiropractor is the best first choice for an event of back pain.
In this paper, 747 participants were treated for low back pain. 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 found is that the men and women who first saw a chiropractor had fewer advanced imaging tests and fewer surgeries.
Other papers 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. TJ Delorie and our team help your body heal with gentle chiropractic adjustments that don't use drugs or risky surgical procedures.
