Chiropractic Research

We've had the privilege of seeing chiropractic be a life-changing influence for so many. And it's not just what we've witnessed — the research backs chiropractic care in numerous ways, too.

Wellness Programs

Employers save $1.65 on health care expenses for every dollar spent on an employee wellness program that includes chiropractic (Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine).

A chiropractor serving as a primary care provider can save money and increase patient satisfaction — patients experienced 62% fewer surgeries, 60% fewer hospitalizations, and required 85% fewer pharmaceuticals than patients using an HMO and traditional medical care (Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics).

Immune System

The World Chiropractic Alliance cites more than 100 references to chiropractic care and its positive influence on immune function, with research showing regular care can result in fewer colds, flu, allergies, asthma, and eczema.

A single chiropractic adjustment has been shown to reduce inflammatory cytokines and improve the secretion of IL-2, which is associated with boosted immune function (Journal of Manipulative and Physiologic Therapeutics; Chiropractic & Osteopathy).

Pediatrics and Pregnancy

Children raised in the chiropractic health care model had less occurrence of ear infections and fewer antibiotic prescriptions (Journal of Chiropractic Research). Colic symptoms improved in 94% of cases after two weeks of care.

Chiropractic care reduces labor time by 36% in first-time mothers and 42% in mothers with at least one other child (study by Joan Fallon, D.C.). Women who exercise and receive chiropractic care during pregnancy enjoy shorter, easier labors and fewer medical interventions.

Objective Testing

An Australian study showed that a chiropractic adjustment dramatically decreased cortisol, a stress-response hormone. Other research has documented significant decreases in systolic and diastolic blood pressure and measurable effects on the autonomic nervous system following adjustments.
