Informed Consent involves understanding the illness you have, and the risks and benefits of all the treatments that are available for your complaint. Unless your doctor has provided ALL that information, you have not been properly informed.
Conservative chiropractic care is much safer for musculoskeletal complaints (neck or back pain etc) than standard medical management, which usually includes pain pills, muscle relaxants, and occasionally physical therapy (exercises).
Chiropractors often hear from patients that medical care either didn’t help, or even made the patient’s feel worse. That is referred to as Iatrogenic Injury.
In fact, the total number of deaths caused by conventional medicine is an astounding 783,936 per year. You may want to read more about that on the Iatrogenic Injury Page before you choose medical care for your complaint. You shouldn’t choose ANY form of care until you know ALL the risks.
