Innie or Outie?

Dr. David Asks some important questions of interest to Richardson residents - Chiropractor Richardson Dr. David Asks...

Do chiropractors prescribe medications for the pain?
No. Chiropractic is a drug-free approach to better health. Instead, we rely on natural methods. We can show you how to use ice to control pain. When properly applied, ice can have an analgesic effect without the unwanted and sometimes dangerous effects of pain medications.
How come medical doctors don't recommend chiropractic?
That's changing. Years of prejudice and bias are giving way to research showing the benefits of chiropractic care. As more and more Richardson folks seek alternatives to drugs and surgery, more and more medical practitioners are referring their patients to chiropractors.
