Chiropractic VS Physical Therapy

You have back pain that won't go away.  You have tried everything from stretching, ice/heat, massage and over the counter pain medications with no to little relief.  What do you do?  The biggest confusion is when to go to a Chiropractor vs a Physical Therapist.  

I have a simple answer. 

Chiropractic is best for most back sprains, injuries, etc.  Physical Therapy is best for post-surgical rehabilitation.  From my experience, I have had numerous patients who sought care with a physical therapist initially for their spinal pain and ended up getting worse.  Exercise and in some cases, stretching, can actually worsen a back sprain/strain injury.  

When in doubt, call us at ABChiropractic for your free consultation with the doctor to determine if Chiropractic is right for you.  Our success rate and satisfaction rate for Chiropractic treatments from patients is over 90% based on numerous studies and surveys conducted over the years.
