 Dr Ron Asks some important questions of interest to Concord residents - Chiropractor Concord Dr Ron Asks...

Why is a "slipped disc" unlikely?
Separating each spinal vertebra is a disc. Its fibrous outer ring holds in a jelly-like material. Because of the way a disc attaches to the spinal bones above and below it, it can't actually "slip." However, a disc can bulge, tear, herniate, thin and collapse. But it can't slip.
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 Concord folks seek alternatives to drugs and surgery, more and more medical practitioners are referring their patients to chiropractors.
