Top Medical Groups Now Supporting Chiropractic Care

Top Medical Groups are Now Supporting Chiropractic

The opioid epidemic has many leading medical groups emphasizing the importance of conservative care for low back and neck pain. The world’s largest medical society, the American College of Physicians, updated its low back treatment guide in 2017 to support conservative options, such as Chiropractic care. The guidelines were published in the prestigious Annals of Internal Medicine and have been adopted by many leading healthcare organizations.

Why it Matters:

Medical guidelines are now emphasizing that patients should only take Ibuprofen or muscle relaxants if other conservative options aren’t helping. New research has shown that medications such as acetaminophen are not very good at providing relief, and in many cases, aren’t even as effective as a placebo.

  • The Agency for Health Care Research and Quality recommended spinal adjustments as the only safe, effective, and drugless initial treatment for back pain.
  • A new article in the American Medical Association suggests Chiropractic as the preferred option for people with back pain.
  • According to the official journal of the North American Spine Society, nearly 75% of patients had significant improvement in their back pain with Chiropractic care, compared to only 17% who had medical care alone.

Next Steps:

Now more than ever, Medical Doctors and Chiropractors are working together to help patients get well and stay well. For over 100 years, Chiropractors have been focused on providing effective, safe, and natural healthcare solutions. Due to the risks and dangers of surgery and medications, the medical community is supporting options such as Chiropractic that take a patient-first approach to care.
