Back Pain and Sciatica

Dr. Craig — 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?
