Chiropractic care is safe and effective for people of all shapes and sizes! It’s well-recognized within the healthcare community that being overweight or obese puts additional wear-and-tear on the body’s musculoskeletal system. That’s one of the key reasons that we recommend to patients that they manage their weight through good, common-sense lifestyle habits—especially nutrition and exercise. We also know from experience that chiropractic care can do wonders for people suffering from a variety of conditions, including back, neck and head pain. AND CHIROPRACTIC CARE IS JUST AS EFFECTIVE FOR PATIENTS OF ALL SHAPES AND SIZES! A study published in the European Spine Journal confirms that this is true for patients suffering from chronic low back pain. NOTABLE QUOTE: “We conclude for the first time that a conservative treatment program in patients even with chronic low back pain is effective both in a short-term and a mid- to long-term time period respectively without any significant differences between patients with a normal BMI or with overweight or obesity.” You can view the study abstract here: link.springer/article/10.1007/s00586-014-3425-5
