Episode Synopsis

In this week's episode, we dive deep into a groundbreaking study that shows how chiropractic care can significantly reduce tramadol prescriptions in adults with radicular low back pain. We explored how tramadol, an atypical synthetic opioid, is often prescribed and the implications of that, contrasting it with the benefits and effectiveness of chiropractic spinal manipulation. This research highlights the dire need for guideline-concordant care pathways and how chiropractors play a crucial role in providing safer, more effective alternatives to opioids.Episode Notes: Chiropractic spinal manipulation and likelihood of tramadol prescription in adults with radicular low back painThe Best Objective Assessment of the Cervical Spine- Provide reliable assessments and exercises for Neuromuscular Control, Proprioception, Range of Motion, and Sensorimotor-Integration.  Learn more at NeckCare.comInterested in ShockWave technology?
