So you found us on the web looking for “chiropractor milford ma” Maybe you used “franklin ma chiropractor” or one of the other surrounding towns like Bellingham, Mendon, Medway or Hopkinton. So many to choose from… why us? Franklin Back & Joint Care was established in 1983. Not many chiropractors can say that. In that time, we’ve developed professional relationships with many area physicians. We’re also open on Saturdays and we have TWO offices (one in Milford and one in Franklin, MA) to better serve the community. We also own a new high frequency (meaning lower radiation) x-ray machine so that you don’t have to go elsewhere for this valuable diagnostic tool. We have massage therapy (therapists) who work out of our office in case you need this service as well. We have a custom built website with a huge amount of information accessible in the Patient Center. Convenience is what we strive to achieve. Who else throws a Health Appreciation Day once a year too, giving away prizes like a 26″ LED TV? Us! We hope to hear from you soon.

Back Pain and Sciatica

Dr. Julian — Tue, 11 May 2010 19:06:16 +0000

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2006 back pain was responsible for 62% of cases of people missing work due to pain involving the upper body (i.e. your back).

Don’t miss work because of pain in your back, Milford MA residents! Chiropractic works. Read on for more information and links as to why chiropractic is effective for low back pain and sciatica. Many scientific studies including the RAND study have shown that spinal manipulation is safe, effective and gets people back to work sooner than conventional medicine (i.e. drugs). Its because Chiropractic goes after the CAUSE (irregular biomechanics in the spine and joints, muscles, tendons, etc) and not the EFFECT (symptoms). Isn’t it time you found out what Chiropractic can do for YOU?
