Don’t fall for this scam.

Even if you have terrible neck pain or back pain, you do not need to see a chiropractor for years.

And, you definitely don’t need to pay for all of that up front!!

If you already signed up for a really long chiropractic care plan, demand your money back.

In most states, they legally need to give it back.

If all your chiropractor does is crack your low back, this chair is probably just as good.

And, it’s definitely a way cheaper low back pain treatment.

If your chiropractor also gives lifestyle and rehab exercise advice, then they are better than a chair.

If you are a trainer, physical therapist, or chiropractor, you probably went through a phase where you thought Mcgill was the s**t.

Or maybe you are still there. No shame, but let me offer an alternative perspective.

Research suggests that there is no best type of exercise for low back pain.

Exercise is fantastic, but there is no objectively best low back pain exercise.

At first this might seem scary; how do you know what to do?

But on second thought, it is pretty freeing.

The patient has the freedom to choose exercise they enjoy, can afford, and/or find meaningful.

You can certainly do the McGill big 3, but you definitely don’t have to.

Good paper
-Grooten WJA, Boström C, Dedering Å, Halvorsen M, Kuster RP, Nilsson-Wikmar L, Olsson CB, Rovner G, Tseli E, Rasmussen-Barr E. Summarizing the effects of different exercise types in chronic low back pain - a systematic review of systematic reviews.

Surgery should not be done for low back pain, unless it is an emergency or very specific circumstances are met.

Cauda equina syndrome, infections, and cancer are emergencies.

Progressing neurological deficits and fully exhausting every other option are specific circumstances.

Otherwise surgery should not be done.

If you don’t believe me, check out Lancet’s low back pain series.

There are many surgeons who follow these guidelines, but there are also many who do a lot of unnecessary surgery and use that money to buy boat.
