Low Back Pain

When you hear the word chiropractic do you think of care for back and neck complaints? Many people do and yet the world's first chiropractic patient (1895) was deaf and recovered his hearing after a chiropractic adjustment. The second chiropractic patient was relieved of a heart condition. Thousands soon praised chiropractic for saving them from headaches, colds, allergies, asthma, sciatica, arthritis, seizures, ear infections, stomach trouble, gynecological problems and many other conditions including  back pain.

Low Back Pain

Back pain is one of the most common health complaints in the world; nearly everyone (80%-90%) gets back pain at some point in time. About a quarter of adults reported having low back pain lasting at least one day in the prior three moths and this helped make low back pain the most common cause of job-related disability and leading contributor to missed work. 

Medical Treatments and Surgery

The medical approach is at times necessary-even back surgery has a place. But research is revealing that spinal surgery for acute lower back problems should rarely be performed.
