Does research support chiropractic care for geriatric patients with low back pain, compression fractures, and other complex health issues?
A study showcased the positive response of an 83-year-old male patient with low back pain and a history of multiple compression fractures, osteoporosis, and degenerative joint disease using the Activator chiropractic technique.
After 8 treatments, the patient was stable and remained stable for 4 months.
This study suggests that Activator-assisted spinal manipulative therapy had a positive effect on low back pain and function in an elderly patient with a complex health history.
Healthcare continues evolving to less-invasive, natural, and drug-free methods, placing chiropractic care as a first-line care choice.
