Chronic back pain is a multi-billion dollar expense in the United States. It is
estimated that about 50 million Americans are living with chronic pain and
two-thirds of our population will suffer from some type of acute or chronic back
pain at some point of our lives.
You don't have to suffer with chronic back pain anymore says Dr. Angelo Karakasis of
Garrett Pain and Rehab. The use of chiropractic has been proven to rid cases of
chronic back pain. Traditionally, Americans tend to gravitate towards medical care
to treat their chronic back pain. According to a study in the fall of 2005 in the
Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, medical and chiropractic
care costs are about equal, but chiropractic care produces better results in
treating chronic back pain.
According to Dr. Karakasis, "Chronic back pain is an epidemic. It affects the
quality of every day life for millions of people. It is particularly frustrating to
see so many suffer when a viable solution exists. Chiropractic has been shown to be
90% cheaper than surgery for back pain."
Many times chronic back pain sufferers rely on over the counter or prescription
pills to provide temporary relief each day. "This is not a healthy way of dealing
with chronic back pain, in fact reliance on these kinds of drugs have negative side
effects on your liver, kidneys, and stomach. Use of pain killers also numb a person
from warning signals given by their body. I've seen patients with acute back pain
who prolong their recovery time. Instead of resting, they will get temporary pain
relief from a pain killer and further strain their back muscles and ligaments, says
Dr. Karakasis.
