When you're trying to sustain your family, take care of your household, and pay all of your bills on time, every day at work counts. Work injuries can be a large problem for many folks, and we see many of these types of injuries in our Jacksonville office. Silver Chiropractic & Wellness understands your situation and is here to help you.
The advantages of chiropractic care for work injuries are well-established. A 2013 survey involving 651 adults who were troubled with either back or neck pain found that the men and women who didn't see a chiropractor missed work at twice the rate of those who were seeing a chiropractor.
According to the respondents in this report, two of the major reasons were that they thought they needed a medical referral for chiropractic care (which is typically no longer true) and they overestimated the costs associated with chiropractic treatment sessions by almost 70%.
The fact is, chiropractic patients actually spend less on care than medical patients, plus they are less likely to use drugs for their symptoms.
If you live in Jacksonville and you've been injured at work, we can help. Give our office a call today at (904) 634-0805 for an appointment.
