Harvard Study Points to Chiropractic Care for Pain Relief & The Safety of the Chiropractic Adjustment
Harvard Medical School’s report emphasizes chiropractic care as a form of pain relief, shedding light on the wide variety of treatments that chiropractors can provide. While spinal manipulation is the mainstay of chiropractic, the report highlights that chiropractic care now includes a wide variety of other treatments, such as manual or manipulative therapies, postural and exercise education, ergonomic training, nutritional consultation, and ultrasound and laser therapies[1].
The report also mentions that while the majority of research on chiropractic has focused on spinal manipulation for pain relief, there have been studies on the effectiveness of chiropractic for treating musculoskeletal pain, headaches, asthma, carpal tunnel syndrome, and fibromyalgia. It further states that a recent review concluded that chiropractic spinal manipulation may be helpful for back pain, migraine, neck pain, and whiplash[1].
The article also addresses safety concerns, noting that serious complications, including stroke, have been reported but are extremely rare, and some studies suggest that these may not be directly caused by the treatment provided by the chiropractor[1].
