It has long been a hot topic in the world of chiropractic.  This thing we call maintenance care.  It is often viewed as a way to “make” patients keep coming back.  As chiropractic is becoming more mainstream we are starting to finally see some research being done to prove the efficacy of chiropractic care and maintenance or wellness care.

This article demonstrates that chiropractic care is effective in decreasing low back pain, of course we all knew that!  But more interesting it also shows that patients who continued with their care every two weeks over nine months had less pain a year later.  Just like brushing your teeth and maintaining your car, your spine needs regular maintenance too.

Call Dr. Myers at Elements Chiropractic to find out how chiropractic can help you.
