Here’s one more reason to choose chiropractic first!

An extensive study of nearly 50,000 adults found that people who received spinal manipulation for new low back pain were:

✅ 80% less likely to develop opioid use disorder
✅ 77% less likely to become long-term opioid users
✅ Less likely to be prescribed opioids in the first place

The takeaway? Chiropractic care is an evidence-based, drug-free approach that helps you feel better without the risks of long-term medication. ✨
