Is chiropractic treatment safe?
Chiropractic adjustments are only safe when performed by someone trained and licensed in chiropractic care.
Chiropractic is recognized as one of the safest and most drug-free treatments available for the treatment of headaches, neck, back and lower back pain. However, no health treatment is completely free from potential side effects. Even the most common over-the-counter medications can carry risks. However, the side effects associated with spinal manipulations are usually minor and short-lived.
Is chiropractic effective for headaches?
Yes, research shows that chiropractic treatment is effective for headaches, although not for all types of headaches.
Spinal manipulation also appears to be helpful in cases suspected to be caused by an underlying neck problem or injury.
Is chiropractic effective for lower back pain?
Yes, chiropractic treatment for low back pain is effective. Research shows that spinal manipulation can help relieve pain in acute low back pain, one of the most common types of low back pain, and improve your everyday life.
The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) recommends chiropractic as the first line of treatment for low back pain.
Based on worldwide studies, the first person you should see for low back pain is your chiropractor.
Chiropractic treatment for herniated disc
Unlike surgery, chiropractic treatment does not reverse the hernia, but it can eliminate your painful symptoms, so you may not need surgery, medications and other treatment options.
Chiropractors are specialists trained in non-drug treatment who focus on the root of your pain and discomfort, rather than just masking the symptoms.
Do I need surgery due to hernia?
A herniated disc can heal on its own. Therefore, it is recommended to start treatment with non-surgical interventions.
Surgery for a herniated disc should only be considered if non-surgical methods fail to provide relief from your symptoms. Here are some conditions that may indicate the need for surgery:
-
Severe pain that does not improve with non-surgical interventions
-
Loss of bowel or bladder control
-
Difficulty standing or walking
-
Loss of reflexes or strength
Chiropractic treatment in daily life

Many athletes benefit from chiropractic care to recover faster after injuries.
Chiropractors can also help prevent injuries with regular chiropractic care.
Chiropractic treatment for hip pain
A chiropractor can help you relieve hip joint pain by treating the underlying cause. He or she will also try to identify where the source of the pain is coming from, rather than just treating the symptoms.
Chiropractic treatment for neck pain
A chiropractor helps relieve neck pain by correcting misalignments in the spine, while improving joint mobility and mechanics, helping to reduce inflammation, spasm and pain.
Chiropractic treatment is one of the most effective treatments for pinched nerves in the neck. Research shows that chiropractic intervention is safe and well tolerated by patients, with significant improvements in pain level following chiropractic treatment.
