Dr. Palmer has helped many people in Depew recover from back pain, and a recent research study reinforces what we've seen in our clinic: researchers carried out a study of 148 people with MRI-confirmed lumbar disc herniation causing back pain, sciatica, and radiating leg symptoms. The majority of patients (79) suffered from chronic lumbar disc herniation lasting longer than three months. Thirty seven subjects had disc herniations for less than four weeks at the start of the study.
Each of the test subjects received chiropractic care based upon the needs of each person. After two weeks, 70% of the subjects had significant improvements in pain and disability; and at three months, 90% had substantial gains. Even better, the progress was retained by patients, with over 80% of patients reporting improvement at the one-year mark.
If you reside in Depew, NY you need to know that you don't have to endure disc herniations or any other type of low back pain. Dr. Palmer is here for you. To see if we can help you, give our clinic a call at (716) 241-2798 today for an appointment or consultation.
