ELDERLY PATIENTS VERY SATISFIED WITH CHIROPRACTIC CARE

While studying chiropractic during my student years, I was uncertain of how much we could actually help elderly patients. After getting out into the real world, I was pleasantly surprised to see that we truly can make a big difference. The results are often very heart-warming as these patients greatly appreciate feeling and functioning better. In a recent survey of elderly patients in the U.S. that received treatment under the government funded Medicare program, 87% were very satisfied with chiropractic care, with 56% giving their chiropractor a perfect 10 out of 10. In fact, 60% percent said they received "complete" or "a lot of relief." I'm sure that the results would have been even better with trained and certified Activator chiropractors, since most chiropractors do treat their elderly patients with the Activator instrument, but seldom do the proper analysis. Making the right adjustment at the right place is essential.
