Rockville Back Pain Treatment

Most of us suffer from back problems at some point in our lives. Experts estimate that nearly 1 out of 3 adults deal with some kind of regular spinal pain. Dr. Aazami and our talented staff see many back pain cases in our Rockville office, and we've found that chiropractic care is a highly effective way to not only help you heal from back pain, it's also an excellent way to prevent future problems.

Research Shows Chiropractic Helps With Chronic Back Pain

A recent study from the University of Utah confirms what our Rockville patients have experienced: your Rockville chiropractor is the best first option for an episode of back pain.

In this article, 747 patients were treated for low back pain. Each patient was evaluated based on the first person they sought treatment with, whether it was a primary care physician, a chiropractor, or a physiotherapist.

What the authors found is that the individuals who first saw a chiropractor had fewer advanced imaging tests and fewer surgeries.

Other studies have found the same results. A 2012 study found that chiropractic patients had the best functional recovery and pain relief for chronic back pain.

Chiropractic works by restoring the natural, pain-free function of your spine. Dr. Aazami and our team help your body heal with gentle chiropractic adjustments that don't use drugs or risky surgical procedures.
