Questions about healthcare continue to escalate amidst the recent changes in political and government leadership throughout the world. People always desire better health care and outcomes for less cost. A study published in 2007 revealed that a different approach to standard medical care delivers the solutions sought by so many families across an array of budgets.
The study analyzed the healthcare numbers and statistics for those who used a Chiropractor as their Primary Care Provider (PCP) compared to men and women who utilized a medical doctor as their PCP. People utilizing a Chiropractor as a PCP experienced significantly improved outcomes in regards to hospital admissions, days spent in hospitals, number of surgeries, and finances used on pharmaceutical drugs. People using a Chiropractor as their PCP compared to people using an MD as their PCP experienced:
- 60% Less Hospital Admissions
- 59% Less Days Spent in the Hospital
- 62% Less Outpatient Surgeries
- 85% Less Costs on Pharmaceutical Drugs
Improved quality of life becomes more readily abundant through fewer hospital admissions and surgeries as well as invasive care prevention and reduced out of pocket expenses. Chiropractic care provides the additional benefit of improved health and vitality through a focus on maximizing health and organ function rather than simply treating symptoms or diseases.
The study noted that a difference in health care philosophy drives the difference in results between medical care and Chiropractic care. Chiropractors begin from the premise that every person possesses an innate wiring for health and vitality. Chiropractic recognizes and works with the intelligence inside the body that helped turn two cells into a fully functional and capable human being in less than ten months. Greater healthcare potential exists when applying this concept across a large populace and research continues to prove that proactive Chiropractic care does far more to benefit health than reactive medical care.
Prescription medications alleviate symptoms and warning signs within the body but pharmaceutical answers prove temporary time and again. Every symptom radiates from a source and Chiropractic pursues the purpose and cause of disease. True health care rectifies health concerns without reliance upon medications or surgeries and the side effects that go hand in hand with each.
The Chiropractic option continues to increase in enrollment as the primary health care choice for families tired of the sick care model of medicine. Research and results continue to reveal the health benefits that come from unlocking the power within the body rather than relying on external influences.

Very informative! thanks for today’s Chiropractic help many people overcome their health challenges.
That’s interesting that the people using a chiropractor spent 85% fewer on prescriptions than the ones who didn’t. I would want to save a much on prescriptions as possible since they can be pretty pricey. I’ll have to consider starting to go see a chiropractor since it would be nice to be able to treat some pain with no medication at all as well.
