Chiropractor specializing in treating Back Pain in Denver

Doctors of Chiropractic  spend years in chiropractic college learning to manipulate the spine, but that ¹s certainly not all they learn. Chiropractors are effective at relieving back pain because they know that long-term solutions come from taking a well-rounded approach to dealing with the problem.

A study involving 147 patients (101 of whom were classified as ³disabled ² from car accidents or work-related back injuries) provides evidence of the effectiveness of this approach to managing back pain. Patients participated in a four-phase rehabilitation program consisting of:

1) Chiropractic treatments, including spinal adjustments, spinal rehab therapy & physical therapeutics.

2) isometric strength training;

3) resistance weight training; and

4) education on back pain, including strategies for coping with pain, relaxation techniques, etc.

After nine weeks of rehabilitation, patients reported decreases in pain and disability compared with pre-rehabilitation measurements. Strength, flexibility and range of motion were also higher, and most significantly, 91 of the 101 disabled patients were able to return to work.

So if back pain ¹s got you down, get up and take a trip to your doctor of chiropractic. You ¹ll get a comprehensive, caring approach that ¹s sure to help you get back on your feet.
