Do you recommend chiropractic medicine?

Rarely: If you need a strenuous, deep massage - chiros can offer that. If you want diagnosis, forget it. If you want a cure stay away. The underlying "theory" of chiropractic is bogus, proven to be wrong and definitely not worth the money. I recommend conventional medicine for scientific diagnosis and frequent curative measures.

Yes, with caveats: Research suggests that chiropractic treatment is safe and effective for back and neck pain and migraine headaches. Just as not all medical doctors are the same, i find some chiropractors give much higher quality care than others. I prefer chiropractors who use more gentle styles like direct non-force, network and activator techniques. I am wary of those who advise long-term treatment. See comment:.

Recommend: Personal experience drew me into the profession. I had great results, and see them daily with patients. Speak to friends, family, other doctors and do research. Visit www.chiro.org/ and look into it further. It's safe, effective, and often least expensive. If needed, there are several great colleagues in Columbus. Best of Luck.
