An ongoing series of questions and answers about Am ericas natural healing profession.
: I don’t have any serious back
problems. Why should I see a
Chiropractor?
: That is a good question.
Sometimes we don’t realize
that a small crick in the neck or
some slight back discomfort is begin
ning of larger problems which are of
ten much more difficult to treat at a
later stage in life.
Unfortunately, eight out of ten Ameri
cans will be struck down by severe low
back pain at one time or another. The
mechanical or structural defects of the
back usually develop slowly and with
very little pain, but if left untreated, may
disable you for days, months or sometimes
permanently. The likelihood of disability
increase dramatically in over 30. Fortu
nately, we are able to avoid many spinal
problems with regular, precautionary
checkups. Just as an eye exram or dental
checkup prevents potential problems or
corrects the problems or in its early stages,
so do Chiropractic checkups. Detected
early, spinal defects are not only easier to
treat, but may save a lot of pain and money,
as well as reducing the chance of a dis
abling spinal disorder. To arrange for your
checkup, or for answers to any questions
you might have about your health, call our
