Chiropractic Adjustments
Maintenance Care for the Spine Reduces Low Back Pain, Disability Levels. 30 patients with chronic low back pain lasting 6 months or more were separated into two groups. The first group received 12 chiropractic adjustments over a one-month period, but no care for the subsequent 9 months. The 2nd group also received 12 adjustments over a one-month period, along with "maintenance" adjustments every 3 weeks for the following 9 months. Patients in both groups experienced significant decreases in low back pain scores after the initial care. However the "maintenance" patients' disability scores were significantly lower after the 10-month period than before the initial care - an average of 16.6 points lower per patient. In the other group, "the mean disability scores went back to their pretreatment level."

Spinal Adjustments
Spinal adjustments, Massage on tight muscles in the neck and at the base of the head, and exercises and stretches to restore neck muscle function and posture. We may also ask you about your pillow to see if improper neck support while sleeping is a source of your pain.
Subluxation
Spinal balance equals better health. The more balanced your spine, the healthier you are; the more unbalanced your spine, the sicker you are. This was the finding in a study of 752 patients who were evaluated for spinal balance and health status. The authors of the study found that health status was significantly poorer as spinal deviation off-center increased and the severity of symptoms increased as spinal imbalance increased. Chiropractic's goal is to correct or adjust your subluxations, releasing deep stress and bringing you back to balance. (Glassman S, Bridwell K, Dimar J. The impact of positive sagittal balance in adult spinal deformity. Spine. 2005;30(18):2024-2029.)
Manipulation Therapy
The follow-up study3 reapplied the same measurement instruments to the patients after more than a year. The results of this follow-up study demonstrated that: "Comparisons of initial and extended follow-up questionnaires to assess absolute efficacy showed that only the application of spinal manipulation revealed broad-based, long-term benefit."
