Dentists. Chefs. Flight attendants. Medicare retirees. The list goes on. Each of these people face the risk for back and/or neck pain. Several professions are simply create more risk due to the nature of their job. Visiting a chiropractor for these neuromusculoskeletal and musculoskeletal conditions is a great idea. Back pain and neck pain and their related arm pain and leg pain are spinal conditions chiropractic physicians are trained and skilled to manage. And in New York City, Rosenberg Wellness Center helps contain the risk and reduce the pain for New York City workers of all vocations AND avocations!

In a recent report, researchers compared patients (Medicare beneficiaries from 66 to 99 years of age) seeing a chiropractor versus a primary care physician (PCP). The patients sought care for a neuromusculoskeletal problem. The probability of injury or risk of injury to head/neck/trunk of a patient within 7 days of the visit was 76% LOWER for chiropractic office visit patients than those patients who saw a PCP:

  • Chiropractic: only 40 per 100,000 patients
  • PCP: 152 per 100,000 patients (1)

Therefore, come see your New York City chiropractor - your back pain specialist - for your neuromusculoskeletal aches and pains! Our gentle chiropractic care - the evidence-based Cox Technic - is so relieving.
