Spinal manipulation provided by chiropractors is often beneficial in the treatment of some types of back pain.

This commentary will help family physicians determine when it might be appropriate to seek the services of a chiropractor in the treatment of back pain.
Dr Homola is in private practice in Panama City, Fla.
