Yeah. Basically anything you give the patient other than opioids to make them feel like something is being done will reduce opioids. Meanwhile most acute low back pain will improve on its own. You’d see the same result for PT, acupuncture, yoga. Anything where you can tell the patient it takes a few sessions to start working.
no.
published in chiro.org and pain reports
2 RCTs, 18 cohort studies.
"very low certainty evidence"
"may reduce odds of receiving prescription opioids"
from the article:
"Among the 18 cohort studies that were included, 1 used prospective data collection methods [31] and the other 17 were retrospective reviews of administrative data."
so vast majority were all retrospective.
of the 2 RCTs, "1 RCT [11] did not blind data analysts, and neither RCT blinded patients or healthcare providers"

Aren't most people that do chiropractic care self-selecting to do that instead of medications? I get what this study is trying to do but it doesn't seem like it tells us much.
um....
Buehler is 9-6, 4.36 ERA, WHIP 1.35. has pitched 153 innings this season, but this postseason he pitched 3 innings with 3.0 ERA, zero strikeouts and WHIP 1.67.
not too impressive.
fwiw, the chiro did not provide the treatment. the dentist did the root canal. and he does not specifically attribute the root canal solely to fixing the elbow. he said had the bad root canal that was taken out, had a lot of stuff going on and later woke up one day and his elbow felt better.

When you remove the hype, chiro doesn’t sound so good.
The best chiropractors near me are basically doing physical therapy.
I think I read that popping your back releases a small amount of endogenous opioid? It does feel really good for a few seconds after
