January 2025 Healthy News from Aaron Chiropractic Clinic 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 highlighted how much people appreciate chiropractic care, with many reporting better quality of life and a decreased need for opioids—a huge win given the focus on addressing the opioid crisis. (1) Within VA facilities, chiropractic services are becoming 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 turning to chiropractic care for successful, non-invasive solutions to contain chronic pain and musculoskeletal issues. (2) This reveals a larger shift in healthcare, as patients and providers alike recognize chiropractic care as a proven, integrative way to handling common problems like back and neck pain. Both patients and public health leaders are recognizing the important role chiropractic care plays in expanding access to safe, effective pain management. This growth not only reflects a beneficial change in how chiropractic care is viewed but also presents opportunities to integrate it more into healthcare systems, benefiting a wide range of patients. Great news! Aaron Chiropractic Clinic is ready to welcome patients to the practice!
