I have seen studies that shown benefits for low back pain. But it seems that it is only marginally better than conventional medicine. So could it be a placebo effect? Also, is the diagnosis of a short leg substantial or of clinical value?
Has anyone ever heard of treating severe acne with chiropractic therapy?
My son was diagnosed with moderate to severe acne (closer to severe than moderate, says the doctor), he was told he should be put on accutane. I’ve heard a lot of horror stories, so I looked into alternative medicine. I took him to a wellnes center, they took x-rays since his neck was tender. They found that C1,2 & 3 vertabrae are really out of line. I believe it is C3 that is pushing on his pituitary gland, they feel that this could be the cause of his acne. Has anyone every heard of anything like this? He is receiving physical therapy. I really hope it works for him, he’s only 14 and he’s been dealing w/severe acne for almost a year now and I’m so sad for him. He and my husband don’t believe this is going to work and I’m constantly butting heads with their closed minds. I just want to find a safe and effective treatment for him. Please let me know if you have any info. Thanks! Evie
Does chiropractic treatment have any health benefits?
Is it scientifically proven, just like mainstream medicine?
Or is it in the same category as homeopathy, reflexology, acupuncture,etc?
Is it reliable? What does it do actually?
Which name do you prefer, Chiropractic or health and wellness?
I will be opening a Chiropractic practice soon and am trying to figure out if I should use chiropractic or health and wellness in the name of the clinic. Just wanting some thoughts and feedback as to why or why not to use either of these. Thanks!
Thanks for the positive feedback so far from the adults on this question. As for as the answer from the child, or possibly just immature adult, you should really stay out of the alternative medicine section if you believe that pills and surgery are the only ways to help people.
