Baltimore Spine Specialist

If you are looking for a spine specialist in Baltimore, look no further than the doctors at Living Wellness Chiropractic.  If you have not considered having a chiropractor as your conservative spine specialist, you MUST keep reading.  In this author's opinion, there is not any other kind of health care provider in better position to conservatively manage spine problems than a chiropractor.

First, and most importantly, chiropractors provide a very safe method of care with few and extremely rare side effects.  In fact, the average chiropractor pays 1/10 to 1/100 of what a typical medical doctor pays in malpractice insurance.  As we all know, the insurance companies understand statistics and risk.  Therefore, we can reasonably conclude that insurance companies believe that the treatment provided by chiropractors is more safe then treatment offered by medical doctors.

Second, chiropractors are trained in natural methods of care; spinal adjustments, physical therapy, exercises, and nutrition.  In addition, a chiropractor is trained to find the cause of your spinal problem.  Compare this to most pain management doctors or other medically oriented spine specialists who are trained to cover up your symptoms rather than find and address the cause of your problem.  This may seem unbelievable to you, that most medical providers cover up symptoms, rather than find and fix the cause of the problem, but it is nevertheless true, in many cases.  This is true almost every time a doctor prescribes a pain pill, high blood pressure pill, high cholesterol pill, does a nerve block or cortisone injection.  In most of these cases, the treatment covers up the symptom but does not address the cause of the problem.

Third, chiropractors get great results with spine problems.  And, because it is so safe, ususally the worst thing that can happen by starting your treatment with a chiropractor, is that you don't get a full resolution of your health problem and you end up being referred to another kind of health care provider.  Because of the great results chiropractors get with spine problems, this occurs rarely.
