| Evidence for the Effectiveness of Chiropractic | |||||||||
| Research conducted throughout the world shows that chiropractic treatment for lower back pain is both safe and effective. The following are excerpts from a few of the more recent studies. | |||||||||
| Quality of Results | |||||||||
| "... for the management of low-back pain, chiropractic care is the most effective treatment, and it should be fully integrate into the government's health care system." The Manga Report, 1993. |
|||||||||
| vs. Alternative Treatments | |||||||||
| "Chiropractic treatment was more effective than hospital outpatient management, mainly for patients with chronic or severe back pain." British Medical Journal, 1990. "...spinal manipulation applied by chiropractors is shown to be more effective than alternative treatments for low-back pain." "...injured workers ... diagnosed with low-back pain returned to work much sooner when treated by chiropractors than by physicians." |
|||||||||
| Long-Term Effectiveness | |||||||||
| "Two and three years after patients with back pain were treated by chiropractors, they experienced far less pain than those who were treated by medical doctors." British Medical journal, 1990. "Low Back Pain of Mechanical Origin: Randomized Comparison of Chiropractic and Hospital Outpatient Treatment." "...one of the unexpected findings ...looks as though the treatment that the chiropractors give does something that results in a very long-term benefit." |
