Study shows Chiropractic reduces surgery by 96%
What type of Doctor to see first?
An important Study finds...The likelihood of surgery is... Directly Related to the type of doctor you first consult.
A 2013 study published in the United States, in the highly respected journal Spine, showed that out of nearly 2000 patients:
If a patient first saw a medical doctor surgeon, the likelihood of having surgery was 42%.
If a patient first saw a Chiropractor, the likelihood of having surgery was less than 2%.
Overall surgery was reduced by 96%, just by seeing a Chiropractor first!
