Chiropractic and Your Quality of Life
Studies have revealed that people under chiropractic care experience wellness in many areas of their lives.
Chiropractic patients in two studies reported improved physical and mental/emotional health, better ability to deal with stress, and more life enjoyment. (1-2) In another study, patients reported improved physical functioning, less bodily pain, improved general health, greater vitality, social functioning, and improved mental health. (3)
Chiropractic has been especially effective in improving the lives of the elderly. In one study of people 75 years of age and older, those under chiropractic care enjoyed better overall health, fewer chronic conditions, fewer days in nursing homes and hospitals, more mobility, and were less likely to use prescription drugs than non-chiropractic patients. 87% of chiropractic patients described their health as excellent compared to just 67.8% of non-chiropractic patients.
