Although some people are still skeptical about chiropractic therapy, even the American Medical Association (AMA) recommends that adjustments should be tried prior to surgical treatment - the one option that should be a last resort.
Dr. Nowak has seen many back pain patients in our South Buffalo office who have been suffering for years and who are worried that they might need an operation for their back discomfort. Dr. Nowak has had great success in helping patients recover and avoid risky back surgery, and the science backs up our experience.
Research Shows Chiropractic Therapy Helps You Avoid Risky Surgery
For example, in one study carried out on about 2,000 Washington State employees who suffered from a back injury while on the job, more than 40% who saw a surgeon first following their injury found themselves having back surgery within three years. That compares to just 1.5% of the individuals who first sought treatment with chiropractic care, showing that this non-invasive approach is very effective at keeping you out of the operating room.
