March 2025 Healthy News from Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic Discover Non-Drug Pain Relief Through Chiropractic Care
DISCOVER NON-DRUG PAIN RELIEF THROUGH CHIROPRACTIC CARE
Back and neck pain remain prominent causes of chronic discomfort, resulting in significant dependency on opioids for relief. However, research shows that chiropractic care may offer an effective, drug-free alternative, minimizing the need for opioids while effectively managing pain.
Chiropractic treatments, such as spinal manipulation and manual decompression, target the root cause of pain by addressing musculoskeletal misalignments. Research supports their effectiveness: a 2025 study by Trager et al. found that chiropractic care for sciatica not only alleviated pain but also led to fewer opioid-related adverse events. (1) Likewise, Kruse et al. (2023) found that patients with failed back surgery syndrome significantly lowered their opioid use after just three months of manual spinal decompression therapy. (2)
Beyond back pain relief, chiropractic care provides] additional benefits by reducing reliance on opioids. This minimizes the risk of addiction and avoids the unpleasant side effects associated with long-term opioid use. Chiropractic care empowers patients to take control of their health safely and holistically, fostering long-term recovery and improved quality of life.
If you’re dealing with back or neck pain and seeking an effective, science-backed alternative to opioids, chiropractic care offers a safe and trusted solution. With a focus on addressing the root cause of pain, this approach allows you to regain control over your health and well-being.

TIP OF THE MONTH: Try Sit-To-Stand Combo Exercise to Help Your Spine!
Keep exercise simple! Combining sit-to-stand exercises with blood flow restriction (BFR) presents a favorable solution for those suffering from low back pain. A 2024 study by Lee KH and Chon SC demonstrates that this powerful duo not only relieves pain but also enhances muscle growth for individuals with back instability. (3) Sit-to-stand movements are simple, functional exercises that improve strength and mobility, while BFR increases circulation and targets muscular adaptation without placing undue stress on the back. Together, they make a safe, impactful solution to assist patients in rebuilding strength, stability, and confidence in their daily lives.
