New Research Added Each Week!

Each week RRS posts new reviews summarizing the latest research to keep you up to date on the newest information for the profession which can assist you in providing the best care for your patients. There are well over 400 reviews in the RRS database, including these most recent additions.

• Spinal Manipulation vs. Medication vs. Exercise for Neck Pain – This was a positive study that received a lot of media attention – we should all be familiar with this study so we can discuss it with our patients. 
• Chiropractic vs. Self-Management for Acute (Non-Coronary) Chest Pain – This interesting randomized trial demonstrates that chiropractic care is a reasonable option for patients with chest pain (once coronary causes have been ruled out.) 
• Exercise for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis – This systematic review updates us on the state of the evidence for employing exercises in patients with scoliosis. 
• Non-Operative Treatment of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis – This literature review summarizes the treatment options for this increasingly common condition.
• Movement-Based Classification Systems for Low Back Pain – This paper summarized a variety of different systems that have been proposed for assisting in the assessment and treatment of low back pain.
