Kettering Back Pain Treatment

Kettering back pain treatment by Dr. PoelkingMost of us suffer from back problems at some point in our lives. Experts estimate that nearly 1 out of 3 adults deal with some kind of regular spinal pain. Dr. Poelking and our talented staff see many back pain cases in our Kettering 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 a great way to avoid future problems.

Research Supports Chiropractic Helps With Chronic Back Pain

A recent paper from the University of Utah confirms what our Kettering patients have experienced: your Kettering chiropractor is the best first choice for an episode of back pain.

In this paper, 747 participants were treated for low back pain. Each patient was assessed based on the first person they sought treatment with, whether it was a primary care physician, a chiropractor, or a physiotherapist.

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

Other studies have found the same results. A 2012 study found 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. Poelking and our team help your body heal with gentle chiropractic adjustments that don't use drugs or risky surgical procedures.
