Prescott, AZ Herniated Disc Treatment

Dr. Weary has helped many people in Prescott, AZ recover from back pain, and a recent research study reinforces what we've seen in our clinic. Researchers carried out a study of 148 patients 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 patients had disc herniations for less than four weeks at the start of the study.
All of the test subjects received chiropractic adjustments based upon the needs of each patient. After fourteen days, 70% of the participants had significant progress in pain and disability; and at three months, 90% had substantial improvement. Even better, the improvement was retained by patients, with over 80% of patients reporting improvement at the one-year mark.
