Dispelling Those Chiropractic Myths!

By Donna Stark 

Have you ever heard about the show that used a lot of scientific methods to establish the truth and dispel popular myths? The show was called MythBusters and it was wildly successful for many years. I guess the reason for its popularity is that people really do appreciate knowing the truth. I know I do. In fact, I am always dispelling myths in my home by showing my children that they really aren't allergic to cleaning their room or to my cooking. Perhaps there is a show for me too? Well, I will look into that later. For now, I am going to bust other types of myths. The ones you may have heard about chiropractic care.

Busting Myths

Chiropractic care has been around for longer than you and I have. The first chiropractic adjustment was given in 1895 by Dr. Daniel David Palmer. Since then, it has grown into one of the most effective ways to treat pain and improve a person's overall health and wellness. But sometimes, to find success, you have to sort through a lot of fiction. So let's get started.

  • Chiropractic care is painful - Well, not really. There are times after an adjustment when you may feel a little sore, but that's about it when it comes to pain. And once your actual pain starts decreasing, you won't even remember that initial soreness. Chiropractic care is one of the gentlest approaches to pain reduction and improved health and wellness. It's even gentle enough for babies!
  • Chiropractors force you to keep coming back - Now, that's just straight-up silliness. Nobody can force you to do anything. What will likely happen is that your local chiropractor will recommend a treatment plan that may involve more visits, and if there is one thing you should know about chiropractic care, it's that you will gain the most benefits by coming in regularly. But once you start feeling better, that will end up being your choice anyway and nobody will have to force you to come in.
  • Chiropractic treatments are expensive - Here are some no-nonsense facts. Chiropractic care can help reduce the risk of significant health issues. Issues like heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and joint degeneration. It can also improve your immune system so that you aren't getting sick as often as you used to. Now consider the costs of all of the above. Don't forget all of the doctor visits, the medications, the invasive procedures, and the time off work. Is your head filling up with dollar signs yet? Receiving treatment at The Joint Chiropractic is a lot less expensive and fortunately for everyone, they offer several affordable options to choose from.
