There are a few people who talk about chiropractic care and how it hurts. I’m going to do something different today because I think, once you know the truth, you’ll know why these chiropractic myths are just that.
Myth #1 – A Chiropractic Adjustment Hurts
FACT: Most patients actually feel a sense of relief, and the adjustment will cause no pain. As a doctor of chiropractic care, I make adjustments to your spine through specific movements—shifting the body to provide motion to joints that may be “locked up.” I’m not asking your body to do anything it can’t do, just helping it get back to the way it’s supposed to be.
Myth #2 – Chiropractic Care is Very Expensive
FACT: Studies indicate that chiropractic care is actually more cost-effective than traditional medicine. Some doctors and several researchers examined data from 85,000 people utilizing Blue Cross Blue Shield over a period of two years. They found that people who received treatment for low back pain through a chiropractic doctor instead of a medical doctor incurred costs that were forty percent lower.
Now I don’t know about you, but that sounds like chiropractic care is actually less expensive. I don’t know the last time you were in the
hospital, but if you’re in there at least three days, your bill will be over $100,000 dollars on most occasions. Combine that with the noninvasive adjustments that generally require little downtime, and chiropractic care proves to be a faster, cheaper, less painful method of healing.
Don’t let chiropractic myths impede your path to a healthy, pain-free life. If you’re considering chiropractic care but are wary of the inaccuracies floating around out there, find the facts yourself; look online, speak to a local chiropractor, and ask your friends who’ve enjoyed chiropractic care how they feel. Get recommendations, and give chiropractic care a try!
