Chiropractic care, the manipulation of the spine and other joints has been practiced for hundreds of years. Many people see it as a useful way in treating orthopedic problems, neck and backaches, disc pain, sciatic problems and whiplash injuries. Some professional athletes even use chiropractic care as a way to increase their athletic performance come game day. However, given the longevity of this form of healthcare, it still surrounds an unprecedented amount of controversy.
Some people believe that going to a chiropractor doesn’t help sooth their pain and in some cases even increases pain levels. Also, there have been cases (and lawsuits) where chiropractic care has been linked to stroke, either immediately or several days after an adjustment. Many people claim that most of these cases come from chiropractic malpractice, where the chiropractor does not have the proper education and training to administer the care. But how are you supposed to know if a chiropractor is good or bad? So the question remains: is it worth it to risk the visit to a chiropractor when getting a prescription for some painkillers from your physician may be the safer and more effective way of dealing with your pain?
I used to go to a chiropractor pretty regularly and I would get some temporary relief but the last time I went I left with a stiff neck from his adjustments and I haven't been back since. Its a waste of time
I have personally been treated by several chiropractors for disc bulges and herniations diagnosed on an MRI by a medical radiologists. My wife has been treated for severe migraines and pelvic pain during pregnancy. We have both experienced nothing but high quality health care and at a reasonable rate. I have always been impressed with the chiropractic profession from my personal experience and have always had home care and rehabilitative services explained to me quite well. I would recommend chiropractic care to anyone with spinal or extremity pain for long term relief.
The research on stroke has thwarted these erroneous accusations. Painkillers will only kill pain, and any musculoskeletal condition will remain.
There are many, many chiropractors to choose from. Do not simply pick one at random. Instead, ask around and do some homework to see who is best for you.
