Patient Survey Finds Chiropractic Offers Most Satisfaction in Back Pain Treatment

According to a newly released patient survey by a leading consumer group, chiropractic is the top rated treatment for back pain. Of the 14,000 survey respondents who suffered from back pain in the past year, 58 percent rated chiropractic/spinal manipulation as helping a lot. When asked how satisfied they were with practitioners, 59 percent of respondents said they were “highly satisfied” with the back pain treatment received from their doctors of chiropractic whereas only 34 percent said the same about their primary care physicians. Most survey respondents had, on average, tried five or six different treatments for their back pain. Click on the link below to watch a report from CBS News:
