Low back problems may affect different people in many ways.
For some, pain may occur as a gradual ache or tired feeling which becomes worse over time. For others, pain may happen only when you “over do it,” lasting a day or two at a time. For still others, there may be a severe, sharp, stabbing pain which extends into the legs or feet. Whether it is dull, sharp, an ache or numbing, your body is telling you that there is something not quite right. At this point you have two choices in how to handle your body’s cry for help.
CHOICE 1:
Ignore the warning signals your body is sending to you, and pursue various superficial approaches such as: pop a pill, rub some cream on the affected area, mask the pain and cover up the symptoms with prescribed drugs, or even resort to back surgery to fuse the vertebrae together. Be aware. This procedure provides more than a 50% failure rate. According to S. Norman Shealy, MD of the University of Minnesota Pain and Rehabilitation Center, “less than one in ten of the lumbar disc surgeries performed in this country are warranted.” Also, a second or third will not improve the situation. Clearly, this choice does not allow favorable odds.
CHOICE 2:
Allow a Chiropractor to find and correct the CAUSE – the reason that your body is sending the above warning signals to you, indicating that something is wrong. The Chiropractor specializes in removing the CAUSE of your health problems by removing the vertebral subluxations in your spine which place pressure on the soft spinal nerves. By correcting the CAUSE, your body can now repair and function properly without drugs or surgery. Chiropractic has the highest success rate for resolving low back pain and correcting its cause, as proven by research studies documented across the nation and abroad.
Remember, when symptoms first occur, your body is telling you that there is a problem.
The smoke alarm is going off and a fire rages on inside, destroying your body. Medication merely pulls the plug on the smoke alarm and stifles the noise. Doesn’t it make more sense to put out the fire and correct the CAUSE?
You must make the choice. After all, it’s your body, and YOU deserve the best. Chiropractic has been shown to return low back sufferers to their normal activities in the shortest amount of time, with noninvasive and cost effective procedures. Chiropractic is for the correction of the CAUSE of your health problem.
