Good News For Back Pain in Nashua: Chiropractic and Older Adults Are A Great Match.
For older adults on the fence about chiropractic care, a new research study delivers exactly the reassurance you've been looking for. Researchers publishing in Chiropractic & Manual Therapies in 2026 (1) set out to answer one important question: how safe is chiropractic care for older adults? Their findings speak for themselves.
THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE
The research team screened over 2,200 studies, carefully picking out 25 high-quality articles that followed actual older adult patients through their chiropractic spinal manipulation treatment. Out of 412 recorded treatment-related events, the overwhelming majority were mild to moderate — events like bried muscle soreness, some stiffness, or occasional lightheadedness. And the bottom line? Zero catastrophic adverse events. Not one. That's a result worth celebrating.
GOOD NEWS FOR CAUTIOUS PATIENTS
Many older adults and their families imagine chiropractic care is too aggressive or risky as we age. Science, however, paints a much more encouraging picture. This is a body of evidence spanning thousands of treatments in an older adult population that often arrives in the chiropractor’s office like ours at Moriarty Chiropractic already suffering with bak and neck pain, arthritis, and multifaceted health histories. It explained that chiropractors are trained to adapt their techniques for older patients, using gentler approaches like Cox® Technic here at Moriarty Chiropractic that respect the body's changing needs. You can be sure that your chiropractor here at Moriarty Chiropractic in Nashua brings the experience, skill, and gentle touch that every spine — especially yours — deserves.
