Most of us suffer from back pain at some point in our lives. Researchers estimate that nearly 1 out of 3 adults deal with some kind of regular spinal injury. Dr. Aazami and our talented staff see many back pain cases in our Hyattsville, District Heights office, and we've found that chiropractic care is a great way to not only help you recover from back pain, it's also a great way to protect against future issues.
A recent paper from the University of Utah confirms what our Hyattsville, District Heights patients have reported: your Hyattsville, District Heights chiropractor is the best first choice for an event of back problem.
In this article, 747 participants were treated for low back discomfort. Each person 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 researchers discovered 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 reported 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. Aazami and our team help your body heal with gentle chiropractic adjustments that don't use drugs or risky surgical procedures.
