Work Injury and How Chiropractic Can Help

Dr. Smith has been providing chiropractic care for people with work injuries since 2003. Chiropractic care may minimize the number of missed worked days for back and neck pain, as mentioned in recent research. In a new report, chiropractic patients managed to miss fewer work days compared to people who hadn't seen a chiropractic physician.

In this recent study, 650 laborers in Minnesota who had back and/or neck pain were surveyed. The researchers found that most of those surveyed admitted that their back pain prompted them to miss work or resulted in them makingmistakes on the job.

The most interesting finding, however, was that the people who saw a chiropractor had 58% fewer disability days than those who didn't see a chiropractor!

Many research studies report that chiropractic is the perfect way to treat and even prevent back pain, and that's what we've observed here in our clinic in Daphne, AL.
