When you're trying to support your family, take care of your home, and pay all of your bills on time, every day at your job counts. Work injuries can be a big problem for many people, and we see many of these types of injuries in our Jacksonville and Fleming Island, FL office. Select Health and Wellness appreciates your situation and is here to help.
The benefits of chiropractic for work injuries are well-documented. A 2013 research paper involving 651 adults who were suffering with either back or neck pain found that the people who didn't see a chiropractor missed work at twice the rate of those who were seeing a chiropractor.
According to the participants in this paper, two of the major reasons were that they thought they needed a referral for chiropractic care (which is typically no longer true) and they overestimated the costs associated with chiropractic treatment sessions by almost 70 percent.
The reality is, chiropractic patients actually spend less on care than medical patients, plus they are less likely to use drugs for their symptoms.
If you live in Jacksonville and Fleming Island, FL and you've been injured at work, we can help. Give our office a call today at (904) 425-9060 for an appointment.

Dr. Jon Paul Fritz's knowledge and passion about chiropractic care can be traced back to his collegiate athletic career. A serious football injury lead him into the treatment of a chiropractor, and that positive experience redirected his career path. Dr. Fritz worked with Dr. Brian Allard D.C. of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Dr. Kevin Christie D.C. of the XPE Combine Prep Program for NFL athletes.
