Less Pain and Disability, Higher Patient Satisfaction

In a recent study comparing low back pain patients who received either chiropractic care or traditional medical care, those receiving chiropractic care faired better in a number of areas. In fact, those who received chiropractic care for their acute and chronic low back pain, “experienced better outcomes in pain, functional disability, and patient satisfaction.” Researchers also stated, “Chiropractic care appeared relatively cost-effective for the treatment of chronic LBP.”
