Back surgery offers a range of relief for back pain patients: 49-58% for lumbar disc herniation causing sciatica. (1) Many patients experience pain after back surgery. (2) Could this be why spinal manipulation is recommended by the American Pain Society and the American College Of Physicians for primary care of low back pain? (3) This is where New York City chiropractic care with Cox Technic plays a role. In a recent clinical data collection study, 81% of patients show 50% reduction of pain at the end of 3 months of care. 78.6% of those patients show continued pain relief at 24 months after care.

Along with our New York City chiropractic patients, Rosenberg Wellness Center wonders if there will still be some post-surgical continued pain after these replacement surgeries. Good question. In the meantime, Rosenberg Wellness Center offers New York City chiropractic care for neck pain and back pain due to spinal discs for non-surgical pain relief.
