- Osteopathic manipulation, which may involve moving joints back into place, massaging soft tissue and helping relax stressed muscles, was found to reduce chronic low back pain
- Sixty-three percent of those who had osteopathic manipulation reported a moderate improvement in their pain while half said they experienced a substantial improvement
- Drugs do nothing to treat the underlying cause of back pain, which is often related to body mechanics, meaning your posture or muscle balance is off kilter
- Exercise, including foundation training, chiropractic care, and other natural methods such as massage, yoga, acupuncture and EFT are often effective at relieving chronic back pain
