See what the nation’s leading authorities are saying about chiropractic and headache relief after evaluating 24,000 chiropractic offices.

You don’t have to suffer any longer! Now you can stop wondering if chiropractic care safely relieves headaches. Announcing...a new study that’s exactly the proof you’ve been waiting for!

A landmark Duke University Evidence Report was recently released, funded in part by NCMIC Insurance...the largest chiropractic malpractice insurer in the nation.

Researchers evaluated the safety and effectiveness of various treatments for cervicogenic (neck based) and tension-type headaches. You won’t believe what they said.

This ground-breaking report, released by the prestigious Duke University “Evidence-Based Practice Center” (EPC), concluded that chiropractic is both safe and effective in the treatment of two common types of headaches: cervicogenic (neck based) and tension-type headaches. The new findings come as no surprise to doctors of chiropractic and tens of millions of patients who now are headache-free. Science and medicine are now saying what chiropractors have known for over a century.

So what makes the Duke University review significant? It’s the quality of the data and the nature of the research center itself. The center is one of only 12 Evidence-Based Practice Centers (EPC) given the EPC trademark by the U.S. Department of Health Care Research and Quality. The 18-member interdisciplinary panel included: Ph.D. researchers, epidemiologists, government-appointed physicians and doctors of chiropractic. The extensive review was subject to rigorous scientific standards. The center proved the advantages of chiropractic over many other medical, complementary, behavioral and physical therapies often used for headache relief.

Summary of Duke University NCMIC Insurance research findings:

  • Chiropractic manipulation is effective for the treatment of cervicogenic headaches, resulting in less frequent and less severe headaches when compared to other physical and soft tissue procedures.
  • Chiropractic manipulation is effective in the treatment of tension-type headaches, producing superior long-term relief when compared to the most commonly prescribed medication, amitriptyline.
  • Chiropractic neck adjustments are safer than the usual medical and surgical treatments for neck pain and headache.

Now there’s no reason to delay getting the help you need.
