When you're trying to support your family, take care of your home, and pay all of your bills on time, every day at your job counts. Yet many people miss work due to back and neck pain. You may be able to miss less work time with chiropractic care.
The benefits of chiropractic care for back and neck pain are well-established. A 2013 survey involving 651 adults who were suffering with either back or neck pain found that the individuals who didn't see a chiropractor missed work at twice the rate of those who were seeing a chiropractor.
So, why don't more people use chiropractic care?
According to the participants in this study, two of the primary reasons were that they thought they needed a referral for chiropractic care (which is typically no longer true), and they overestimated the costs associated with chiropractic treatment sessions by almost 70 percent.
The truth is, chiropractic patients actually spend less on care than medical patients, plus they are less likely to use drugs for their symptoms. Chiropractic can treat specific issues with back and neck pain as well as improve your overall health and well-being.
