By Michael Dorausch, D.C.

Recently, a U.K. website , Eastern Daily Press, featured a story about officers and support staff that work for the Norfolk police department and chiropractic care.

According to the article, the police are receiving chiropractic in a bid to decrease the amount of time they are off work as a result of injury or illness.

In the past, the police reportedly were receiving physical therapy, but since November of 2002 they have been receiving chiropractic care.

“Some people have been suffering for a year or two, been through traditional routes and not got very far, but with chiropractic treatment they have found a benefit. It’s working well and the staff appreciate it.” – Lee Murray, Head of Occupational Health, Safety and Welfare for the Norfolk Police Department

The article mentions that chiropractic is not just for back pain, but that the chiropractic approach is useful in many joint or muscle related problems. “From headaches to foot injuries,” according to the article. The added bonus of chiropractic care according to Mr. Murray is in, “keeping people at work or getting them back quicker.”

Helping people get back to work quicker and/or keeping them at work is an added bonus for any business. Check to see what chiropractic benefits are included through your employer and get on the path to better health today.
