The Truth about Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic
Doctors are well educated: After the required pre-med undergraduate
studies, today’s Doctor of Chiropractic completes an additional
four-year program at a government accredited chiropractic college
accruing about the same number of classroom hours as medical doctors.
Doctors of Chiropractic are real doctors: Like
other types of doctors, chiropractic doctors meet stringent national
and state licensing requirements, follow a strict code of ethics,
and are approved by governmental agencies as physicians.
Chiropractic is scientific: With today’s
high-tech diagnostic equipment, researchers are affirming what chiropractic
doctors have known all along. A consistent scientific protocol is
used to locate malfunctioning areas of the spine. Studies show chiropractic
care is the best choice for relief of all spinal-related conditions.
Chiropractic
adjustments feel good: Like lifting a heavy rock off your
toe, patients report their chiropractic adjustments feel good as
normal spine motion is restored.
Chiropractic is safe: This year thousands of people
will die from medically prescribed drugs and medicine. Of the millions
of patients benefiting from chiropractic this year, barely a handful
will have a negative experience. Malpractice rates for chiropractors
are lower than other health care professionals; therefore, chiropractic
is the safest of all the health care disciplines.
Continue care as long as you want: Like regular
dental checkups, once patients experience the value of chiropractic,
many choose to continue. How long you decide to benefit from chiropractic
care is always up to you.
The truth is chiropractic is a conservative, drug-free
approach to better health that has helped millions and millions
of people since 1895.
