Most of us suffer from back pain at some point in our lives. Experts estimate that nearly 1 out of 3 adults deal with some kind of regular spinal pain. Dr. Halverson and our talented staff see many back pain cases in our Brunswick GA office, and we've found that chiropractic care is a highly effective way to not only help you heal from back pain, it's also an excellent way to avoid future problems.

Research Proves Chiropractic Helps With Chronic Back Pain

A recent article from the University of Utah verifies what our Brunswick, GA patients have reported: your Brunswick, GA chiropractor is the best first choice for an episode of back pain.

In this study, 747 patients were treated for low back pain. Each person was assessed based on the first person they sought treatment with, whether it was a primary care physician, a chiropractor, a physiatrist (also known as a rehabilitation physician), or a physical therapist.

What the authors found is that the individuals who first saw a chiropractor had fewer advanced imaging tests and fewer surgical procedures.

Other papers have found the same results. A 2012 study reported that chiropractic patients had the best functional recovery and pain relief for chronic back pain.

Chiropractic works by restoring the natural, pain-free function of your spine. Dr. Halverson and our team help your body heal with gentle chiropractic adjustments that don't use drugs or risky surgical procedures.
