Chiropractic and Seniors

According to a recent article published on August 24, 1999, in “USA TODAY”, more than 80% of seniors aged 65 and over are aware of the call of alternative medicine.

This awareness has been growing thanks to the increased use of these services.

The statistics comparing the use of chiropractic with other non-medical modalities are as follows: Chiropractic leads with a 32% usage, followed by massage therapy at 16%, acupuncture at 9%, homeopathy at 4%, naturopathy at 3%, and Chinese medicine at 3%.

A recent study published in “Topics in Clinical Chiropractic” on a randomized trial with nursing home patients showed that patients who use chiropractic are less likely to be hospitalized.

And less likely to be admitted to a nursing home, while having a higher chance of enjoying good health, more energy training opportunities, and being self-sufficient in the community.
