Effectiveness of Chiropractic Manipulation in Treating Acute Back Pain and Sciatica

 

How effective is chiropractic manipulation in alleviating acute back pain and sciatica, conditions that often lead to significant disability?

A study featured in the Spine Journal sought to compare the outcomes of active chiropractic manipulations with those of simulated manipulations in patients suffering from acute back pain and sciatic nerve discomfort.

Active manipulations entailed patients lying down and receiving hands-on treatment from a chiropractor.

Conversely, simulated manipulations involved the use of electrical muscle stimulation, with electrodes placed on the skin to administer electrical pulses to various parts of the body.

The results of this study led to the conclusion that active chiropractic manipulation is more effective than simulated manipulations in providing pain relief for individuals dealing with acute back pain and sciatic nerve discomfort.

A month ago my arm was immobilized due to my severe scoliosis. After my first assessment & visit with Dr.Bryan at Back in Balance I IMMEDIATELY felt relief and knew I was in the right hands. After a month of regular treatment I can feel my spine re-aligning, my arm is totally back to full function and the pain in my back has reduced tremendously. If you are struggling with back or neck issues, I highly recommend you check this place out. The staff is super friendly as well and makes you feel welcomed. I’m so grateful I found this place.

I’m impressed! I was in need of Physical Therapy for a fractured arm/elbow, after my first appointment I felt this was an excellent opportunity to also get needed Chiropractic care for my long-time neck and back issues. I see the whole Team at Back in Balance and enjoy each of them, from the very first contact with Marlo who scheduled my appointments I felt welcomed. My arm has much improvement and my neck has started to loosen up with the expertise of both Dr Bryan and Dr Nicole along with Physical Therapist James. I’m looking forward to seeing even more good results with my back! You truly are a Team that works well together. Thank you!

Back in Balance did a great job helping me with my recovery from my back issues. Not only did they provide effective treatment they also helped me dig deeper and find the root of the problem. They gave me guidance in how to make changes in me lifestyle to help prevent me from having further issues. When I was dealing with tension in my upper back they recommended dry needling. James did a great job walking me through the process and making me feel comfortable. The dry needling ended up giving me some immediate relief from the tension. If your looking for a good Chiropractor in the Asheville area definitely give Back in Balance a try.

Let me start by saying that the team at Back in Balance are some of the most wonderful people I have met. They sincerely care about each of their patients and their wellbeing, and treat you with respect, dignity, and kindness. I first started seeing Dr. Bryan when I was having significant lower back pain that was hindering my movement, sleep, and overall functionality. After beginning to work with the team at BIB, I not only began to feel better physically, but I looked forward to my visits and the time I got to spend with Dr. Bryan, Dr. Nicole, James, Rae, and Marlo. They became my extended family and took care of me in so many ways beyond chiropractic adjustments. I will forever recommend Back in Balance to anyone looking for a holistic approach to healthcare! The wealth of knowledge that Dr. Bryan and Dr. Nicole have is immense and has been an integral part of better understanding my body and healing it

As someone who understands how difficult it can be to find a chiropractor, please for your body and health’s sake go to Back in Balance! I have seen more than my fair share of chiropractors in my life. Neck and low back pain being my main issues. I’ve been happy with a few, disappointed by others. But never, ever have I felt so comfortable, welcomed, and heard by the doctors. My body is truly being listened to and worked with, not just worked on. The entire staff is amazing, hard working, and welcoming. Your visit here is so much more than just an adjustment. I am so thankful to have found this practice! I thank all of you at Back in Balance!
