Dr. Bogan has helped many people in Tulsa, OK recover from back pain, and a recent study reinforces what we've seen in our office: the authors performed a study of 148 people with MRI-confirmed lumbar disc herniation producing back pain, sciatica, and radiating leg symptoms. Many patients (79) suffered from chronic lumbar disc herniation lasting more than three months. Thirty seven subjects had disc herniations for less than a month at the start of the investigation.
All of the test subjects received chiropractic adjustments based upon the needs of each person. After fourteen days, 70% of the subjects had significant progress in pain and disability; and at three months, 90% had substantial gains. Even better, the progress was retained by patients, with over 80% of patients reporting improvement at the one-year mark.
