January 2025 Healthy News from Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc Growth of Chiropractic Benefit and Satisfaction for All
CHIROPRACTIC CARE GROWS IN SATISFACTION…AND DEMAND!
Chiropractic care is growing rapidly in both public and Veterans Affairs (VA) facilities, thanks to increasing patient demand and high satisfaction rates. A 2024 review of patient encounters by Newell et al in J Patient Exp featured how much people appreciate chiropractic care, with many reporting better quality of life and a reduced need for opioids—a huge win given the focus on addressing the opioid crisis. (1) Within VA facilities, chiropractic services are evolving as a key part of personalized, holistic care for veterans, helping with both acute and chronic pain needs. Bensel et al reported in Plos One shared research within the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) demonstrated that more veterans are coming to chiropractic care for successful, non-invasive solutions to manage chronic pain and musculoskeletal issues. (2) This reflects a larger shift in healthcare, as patients and providers alike see chiropractic care as a proven, integrative approach to tackling common problems like back and neck pain. Both patients and public health leaders are recognizing the important role chiropractic care plays in growing access to safe, effective pain management. This growth not only shows a beneficial change in how chiropractic care is viewed but also opens up opportunities to integrate it more into healthcare systems, benefiting a wide range of patients. Nice news! Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc is ready to welcome patients to the practice!
