Frequently Asked Questions
What is chiropractic?
Chiropractic care, by contrast, is a non-surgical, drug-free approach that focuses on the spine and extremity-related conditions. In particular, chiropractors diagnose, treat, and help prevent musculoskeletal issues that affect movement and nervous system function. To do this, they use hands-on techniques to evaluate joints, muscles, tendons, and their impact on the nervous system. Just like other healthcare professionals, chiropractors begin with thorough assessments and detailed patient medical histories. Then, they perform orthopedic tests to gather more insights and ensure an accurate and complete diagnosis. Based on the results, they estimate your recovery timeline and develop a personalized, goal-oriented treatment plan.
Our Vancouver chiropractor at At Aquarius Chiropractic in Yaletown emphasizes patient education and clear communication throughout your care experience. Moreover, we provide customized therapeutic exercises and lifestyle advice to support long-term health and overall well-being.
What does the science say:
Research supports the effectiveness of chiropractic care for chronic pain relief. A study led by world-renowned orthopedic specialist Dr. Kirkaldy Willis and Dr. David Cassidy, D.C., Ph.D., tracked the outcomes of chiropractic treatment for 171 individuals with chronic low back pain that was unresponsive to traditional medical care. Within just 3 weeks of treatment, Dr. Cassidy relieved 87% of symptoms, and follow-up evaluations a year later showed patients remained pain-free. This highlights the potential of chiropractic care in managing low back pain and spine-related issues.
For you, this means quicker recovery times and less time away from work, while for employers and WorkSafeBC, chiropractic care can result in lower compensation costs.
