Carlsbad Chiropractor was born to address the need for a natural and
non-invasive form of truly managed health care in the North San Diego
community of Carlsbad.
Chiropractic advocacy: Do chiropractors have a professional responsibility to help those less fortunate?
Most minimum wage workers stand for long hours, perform repetitive
motions and are under high amounts of stress to increase output. "Low
back pain (LBP) continues to be one of the costliest work-related
injuries in the United States in terms of disability and treatment
costs" (Cifuentes, 2011). Oftentimes, workers do not have sick pay and
do not have time to recuperate or seek proper medical attention for
their injuries, typically musculoskeletal in nature, nor do they have
the financial means to seek out such care. Retail, mechanic/automotive,
hair/nail stylist, food, factory, airline, lawn maintenance and
hospitality employees all work long hours with low wages, with minimal
or no benefits to cover typical medical costs or alternative healthcare
options.
