Chiropractic care and reduced opioid usage https://academic.oup.com/painmedicine/article/21/12/3567/5788462

Patients with spinal pain who saw a chiropractor had half the risk of filling an opioid prescription. Among those who saw a chiropractor within 30 days of diagnosis, the reduction in risk was greater as compared with those with their first visit after the acute phase.

Chiropractic care, manual therapy, exercise therapy and neck pain

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0161475413002376

Strong recommendations were made for the treatment of chronic neck pain with manipulation, manual therapy, and exercise in combination with other modalities.

Myofascial release and low back pain

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1556370722000645

The improvements in the outcome measures for both groups suggest that remote myofascial release was effective in patients with chronic nonspecific LBP. The remote myofascial release of the lower limbs reduced the elastic modulus of the lumbar fascia and LBP.
