Most patients with back pain will require surgery.

Explanation:

In most cases, back pain will resolve on its own with treatment at home and over-the-counter medications. Some patients benefit from spinal traction, a physiotherapy technique that applies a longitudinal stretch to the reachable joints and soft tissues that is commonly used on the cervical, lumbar spine and thoracic spine. Surgery is not usually recommended.

Partnering With You Since 2008, Orchard Chiropractic & Physiotherapy has been serving Kelowna and the surrounding communities as a premier family wellness and sports injury care centre. We are conveniently located within the shopping hub of the central Okanagan, in the Orchard Plaza 2 building in Kelowna, BC. We’re a holistic practice focused on quality patient care, building strong relationships with our patients and community, and helping our patients to be proactive with their health. Our first priority when we see a new patient is to address their primary health complaint(s), then investigate how that’s integrated with the function of your entire body, and how that fits in with your overall health goals. What Makes Us Different? We find that many of our patients are people who’ve tried other modes of health care, and haven’t yet found what works for them. Sometimes they’re simply looking for a more thorough evaluation. We’re able to provide that because instead of focusing on becoming a high volume practice, we choose to focus on providing quality care. “We spend the time we feel is required with each patient,” says Dr. Barnett. “Needs vary from person to person, and we devote ample time to corrective exercises and teaching them about self-care. Taking care of yourself after treatment is just as important as the treatment itself.” Contact info, office address, office phone number, office contact and informational video upon services for (Orchard Chiropractic Kelowna) V1Y 8K5, BC at HealthChoicesFirst.com
