Is Chiropractic Safe and Effective?
Yes, Chiropractic is safe and effective. Chiropractic is a non-invasive form of healthcare that does not use drugs or surgery, and in general is considered safe when performed by a fully qualified and licensed professional. When compared to medical treatments for back pain, such as overt-the-counter and prescription pain pills, Chiropractic has been shown to be far safer. In fact, you are far less likely to be injured by a Chiropractic treatment than you are driving your car around every day. And when it comes to effectiveness, the research shows that Chiropractic is in fact effective in the relief of symptoms of low back pain, neck pain, headaches, migraines, certain hip and shoulder problems, sciatica and more. Many Chiropractic patients also report improvements in other areas of their health such as better immunity, relief from asthma, improved allergies, etc., but further research in to these non-musculoskeletal effects is still required.
