Why Haven’t People With Neck Pain Been Told These Facts? It can affect your sleep, your marriage and your job. Nothing’s worse than feeling great mentally, but physically feeling held back from life because your neck hurts and the pain just won’t go away! My name is Dr. Rich Berkowitz, owner of Carolina Chiropractic Plus. Over the past fourteen years since we’ve opened the doors, I’ve seen thousands of people with neck pain, arm prob- lems and headaches leave the offi ce pain free.

Even top sports star and entertainers… like Tiger Woods, Emmitt Smith, Tony Robbins, Joe Montana, Lance Armstrong, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Mel Gibson. These professional athletes have the money to hire any kind of doctors they want, yet they choose to have a chiropractor on their team. A recent scientifi c study showed chiropractic adjustments outperformed massage treatments in reducing pain. The study concluded that patients with chronic neck pain showed “clinically impor- tant improvements from a course of spinal manipulation… The current evidence does not support a similar level of benefi t from massage.” – J Manipulative Physiol Ther 2007 In another study comparing acupuncture, a non- steroidal anti-infl ammatory drug, and spinal manipulation found… “After a median intervention period of 30 days, spinal manipulation was the only intervention that achieved statistically signifi cant improvements.” - J Manipulative Physiol Ther 1999 In addition to that, here’s what some of the top medical researchers had to say … Chiropractor’s manipulation of the spine was “more helpful than any of the following: traction, massage, biofeedback, acupuncture, injection of steroids into the spine and back corsets, and ultrasound.” – Stanley Bigos, MD, Professor of Orthopedic Surgery The 9 Most Dangerous Words A Person With Neck Pain Can Say The big myth about health problems is “maybe it will just go away on its own.” A 1998 study in the British Medical Journal proved this myth false, showing that most back pain sufferers who do nothing will have pain 12 months later.
