Chiropractic
Shows High Patient Satisfaction with Back & Neck Problems
A
research journal, the “Journal of Manipulative and Physiological
Therapeutics” published a study that showed high levels of
patient satisfaction for those who went to chiropractors with what
was classified as severe to moderate pain in either the back or
neck. A total of 369
patients were sampled who had gone to chiropractors with these
problems. These
individuals were asked to complete surveys tracking all kinds of
information from the type and severity of their problem to their
level of satisfaction with care.
The
results showed a very positive response from the study group in
both the results they felt and their overall level of satisfaction
with their care. The
results of the published study summed it up best;
“Based on the
results of this survey, it seems that patients suffering from back
and or neck complaints experience chiropractic care as an
effective means of resolving or ameliorating pain and functional
impairments. Moreover,
the patients surveyed demonstrated a high degree of satisfaction
with the care they received.
Numerous other studies have demonstrated that chiropractic
is as effective, if not more effective than conventional medical
management of such complaints.”
