Yes! 👍

New research from JMPT showcased that adjustments (or spinal manipulation) were just as effective as NSAID's at reducing pain...with NONE of the risks.

They also found a 51% decreased risk of an adverse drug event if you had been to a chiropractor in the last 12 months...coincidence? https://www.facebook.com/TheEvidenceBasedChiropractor/videos/2614924431858364/

Below is an MRI of a patient with a disc herniation at L4-L5.

Does the patient need surgery, injections, or chiropractic?

Even with a large disc herniation- patient's should begin conservative care such as chiropractic or therapy before considering surgery or more advanced interventions.

It's been estimated that over 50% of the population walks around each day with disc issues...and thankfully very few require surgery!

The size of the herniation DOESN'T matter. Always examine the patient, not the picture!
