A prospective study from “The Journal of American Geriatrics Society” 2004 proved that “Participants with hyperkyphotic posture (slouching forward in the mid back) had a significant, 2.4 times greater rate of death.”1
That’s not back pain or arthritis….Death!
Reversing or stopping hyperkyphosis equals reversing or stopping death…According to the Medical Data!
Therefore, chiropractic is stopping premature death.
Are you or a loved one slouching forward? Is it hard to sit up straight? Those are signs that you are in need of a check-up.
I see pre and post x-rays every week in my Kelowna office that show the reversal of this condition with corrective chiropractic care. Can I help people who have late stage degenerative changes? Yes, usually. Is it much easier to correct this problem early or prevent it all together? Yes, absolutely!
Why not pass this on to someone who is slouching forward. You could save their life.
