Chiropractic Care FIRST

Want to save money on your health bills? Chiropractic Care: A Cost Effective Solution For Spinal and Extremity Pain 

At Freedom Chiropractic, we understand that dealing with spinal and extremity pain can be both physically and financially draining. Recent research has shed light on how chiropractic care not only alleviates pain but also significantly reduces healthcare costs—making it a vital choice for those seeking effective and affordable care.

A comprehensive systematic review published in 2024 compared the costs associated with chiropractic care to conventional medical management for spine pain like neck and low back pain. The findings are striking: patient who chose chiropractic care as their first line of treatment experienced fewer opioid prescriptions, surgeries, hospitalizations, and unnecessary imaging procedures. This led to a substantial reduction in overall healthcare costs.

Here's why this matters:

1. Reduced Need for Invasive Procedures: Chiropractic care focuses on non-invasive treatments such as specific chiropractic adjustments, extremity adjustments, and therapies like spinal decompression and laser therapy. This approach helps avoid the need for surgeries and injections, which are often costly and come with higher risks.

2. Lower Opiod Dependency: The opioid crisis remains a significant concern, with spine-related pain often leading to prescriptions for these addictive medications. Chiropractic care offers a drug-free alternative, helping patients manage their pain without the risks associated with opioid use.

3. Cost Saving on Imaging and Referral Specialists: Many medical treatments for spinal pain escalate to advanced imaging and specialist referrals. Chiropractic care typically requires fewer of these costly interventions, further reducing the financial burden on patients.

4. Prevention of Long Term Health Issues: By addressing the root causes of pain through customized treatment protocols, chiropractic care not only provides immediate relief but also reduces the likelihood of future healthcare needs—saving patients from prolonged suffering and additional costs.

In essence, choosing chiropractic care first can lead to a healthier, more affordable recovery journey. At Freedom Chiropractic Spine and Injury Center we are committed to providing personalized care that not only addresses your pain but also respects your financial well-being. If you or a loved one is suffering from spinal or extremity pain, consider the long-term benefits of chiropractic care. It could be the most cost-effective and health-preserving decision you make.
