How A Kent WA Chiropractor Helps Back And Neck Pain Without Surgery

By Jorel Tuyor


The fact is that pain in the lower back is leading condition leading to disability in the United States, as well as the rest of the world. Approximately 80% of Americans will have discomfort of this type during their life, which is something a Kent WA chiropractor can assist with.

And back pain is hard to resolve. Traditionally, back pain has been treated with medication and bed rest. Many people cannot afford to take weeks out of work and daily activities - so they double up on the painkillers and keep going, making the problem worse. Then they end up needing expensive, risky surgery that can end up making the situation worse, particularly for problems in the neck.

The answer is a Kent chiropractor. Chiropractic adjustment has become the go-to therapy for back pain, especially in the lower back. Chiropractors do not prescribe drugs or perform surgery and seldom prescribe bed rest (which they believe is counterproductive). Instead, they are most likely to combine spinal manipulation with controlled, properly chosen exercise or physical therapy. This often allows patients to reduce the number of painkillers they are taking, which also reduces side effects and the risk of addiction with narcotic pain killers.

Through chiropractic approaches like adjustments, controlled exercises, ergonomics, and better posture, most people are able to fully recover from back pain without the need for surgery.

A good chiropractor can give advice on better arranging a work space to avoid aggravating a back problem, can help with supplements and vitamins to encourage spine health and may, in some circumstances, use traction. The therapies offered generally have few or no side effects and are holistic and functional in nature, designed to get you back to your life as quickly as possible.

Back and neck pain sufferers could greatly benefit from speaking with a chiropractic office to discover how they can get back to normal living by avoiding surgery and naturally reducing the need for addictive painkillers.
