AMA Recommends Chiropractic Care Before Surgery

Although some people are still uncertain about chiropractic treatment, even the American Medical Association (AMA) recommends that adjustments should be tried prior to surgery - the one option that should be a last resort.

Dr. Nowak has seen many back pain patients in our South Buffalo office who have been hurting for years and who are worried that they might need an operation for their back pain. Dr. Nowak has had great success in helping patients get relief and avoid risky back surgery, and the science backs up our experience.

Research Shows Chiropractic Therapy Helps You Avoid Risky Surgery

For example, in a study carried out on nearly 2,000 Washington State workers who suffered from a back injury while at work, more than 40% who saw a surgeon first following their injury found themselves having back surgery within three years. That compares to just 1.5% of the patients who first sought treatment with chiropractic care, showing that this natural approach is extremely effective at keeping you out of the operating room.
