Scientific Study Validates Maintenance Adjustments

A recent clinical trial published in the August 2011 edition of the medical journal Spine proves that "Spinal maintenance adjustments show long term benefit for chronic low back pain".

To obtain long term benefits of reduced pain and increased range of motion, the authors recommend on-going maintenencae therapy spinal adjustments bi-weekly.

You can read the study abstract at: http://journals.lww.com/spinejournal/Fulltext/2011/08150/Does_Maintained_Spinal_Manipulation_Therapy_for.2.aspx. (cut and paste in your browser).

The reason this study was so significant? It was performed by MD's, not chiropractors, and published in the premier international journal for spinal research and surgery!

This study validates what we have been saying for 100 years: That regular chiropractic adjusments help you maintain an active lifestyle.
