Back Surgery

Avoid surgery.

Back pain is one the highest reasons people go to the doctor every year.  Many of these people are plagued by herniated or bulging disc; these patients are subjected to many different treatments.  Treatment s that range from pills, shots, yoga, acupuncture, and in too many cases life changing surgery.  If a patient is suffering from a herniated disc they should consider seeking out chiropractic treatment.  A recent study demonstrates that patients who choose chiropractic care will be twenty eight times less likely to need surgery.1

Surgery is a big deal and many back surgeries fail after three to five years.  Patients often think that the day after the surgery they will be cured, they find out that they are still in pain, they are still dependent on meds and still need months of physical therapy.  

An experienced board certified chiropractor will give their patient high quality care that is very safe and very effective. There are no addictive pills or medications.  At Moreland Chiropractic Clinic we strive to give the highest quality evidence based care possible.  Dr. David Moreland has been practicing chiropractic since 1995 in the same location.  The areas only NCCA ACBSP board certified chiropractor.  We utilize the Cox method to reduce a bulging disc and exercise to strengthen the spine so there is less chance of reoccurrence in the future.

At Moreland Chiropractic we get to work on your problem quickly.  We treat on the initial visit.  There is no so-called “report of findings”; a sales pitch designed to keep you on coming in once a month for the rest of your life.  There are no night time classes for the same purpose.  We don’t x-ray every person that walks through the door either. We operate on the treat and release philosophy.  When you feel better, we recommend a home care plan and let you know our door is open in the future if you need us again.

We live in the area so we are here when you need us.  We work five days a week and are here early and late.  Some area offices are operated by chiropractors that live counties away, as far as St. Louis.  Not us we are local, born and raised.  If you need us on the weekend or after hours you have our number and we will come running.

Don’t delay, call today.
