Will my doctor approve?
In 1995 the British Medical Association concluded that patients with low back pain treated with Chiropractic derive more benefit with long term satisfaction than those treated by hospitals. Following on from this, G.P's were advised in 1996 by the Royal College of General Practitioners to recommend manipulative treatment within the first six weeks for patients with low back pain. However, you do not need a GP referral to visit a Chiropractor.
