Eight out of ten Americans suffer from recurrent back pain. Fortunately, many can be helped to conquer their pain and live a more active life, without the need of drugs and surgery.
If you are one of the millions of Americans suffering from back pain, you are not alone. Back pain accounts for more workers' compensation claims than any other single ailment, costing some $20 billion each year. But researchers and sufferers both are finding a less costly, more effective way to treat back pain: Chiropractic.
Most back pain results from musculoskeletal disorders - injury, neglect, or misuse. Your spinal column forms a protective canal that houses the spinal cord, which is your body's primary communication line. Poor posture, lack of exercise, over exertion, and misuse can build up over time and force a vertebrae or disc out of place. This misalignment can put pressure on sensitive spinal nerves, interrupting the nerve flow and causing pain and other related problems.
Dr. Dorfman and associates are specially skilled in treating spinal misalignments. Their diagnostic capabilities enable them to pin-point structural problems that are causing nerve interference. Their safe and gentle adjusting methods offer patients relief from pain and restored function and mobility of affected joints. They then help patients maintain a sympton-free lifestyle by educating them on the proper care and maintenance of a healthy back and nervous system.
A federal government study, released in 1994, found chiropractic care to be one of the most effective methods in treating low back pain. It's time for you to take control of your health. Call the Associated Chiropractic Clinics & Medical Centers today and start to live without pain.
