Georgetown Chiropractics Time is Now

Dr. Butwell is Georgetown’s chiropractic care hub and is excited to be a part of chiropractic as its benefits for back pain relief grow in recognition. 

The GLOBAL Role of Chiropractic for Back Pain

It’s the time for chiropractic! Dr. Butwell is thrilled to offer chiropractic services in Georgetown and be a part of this time in healthcare.  Lancet, one of the leading medical journals, published a series of articles on the disappointing way8 healthcare systems around the globe are managing low back pain. Back pain is an enormous problem everywhere and growing worse. And chiropractic is “perfectly placed to be a major player in providing a part of the solution to the global challenge of low back” providing that its providers follow guidelines (like your chiropractor strives to do!) to not order excessive x-rays, follow evidence-based care clinical practice guidelines, and keep up-to-date of the latest research (and even taking part in research when possible!). Chiropractic is recognized for its role in treating back pain. A place for it needs to be made in mainstream healthcare to take care of more back pain and neck pain sufferers non-pharmacologically and non-surgically. (1) The World Federation of Chiropractic is creating27 toolkits for chiropractors to engage with public health communities and be of greater service to patients and communities within the health system as respected partners for their health and well-being. (2) Your Georgetown chiropractor at Dr. Butwell appreciates this sponsorship and foreshight from a world chiropractic organization as that is just what this Georgetown chiropractic practice of Dr. Butwell aims to do here in Georgetown.

Listen in to this PODCAST with Dr. Christophe Dean on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson about how he integrates Cox® Technic into his Georgetown patient care to help ease back pain.


Dr. Butwell offers the best of chiropractic care options to ease Georgetown back pain sufferers’ pain, sometimes with back belts. 

TIP OF THE MONTH: Wear a Back Support

Low back pain patients at Dr. Butwell may benefit from wearing a lumbar back belt. New research shows that a lumbar support belt does not necessarily result in muscle weakness but rather enheances walking distance capability for spinal stenosis patients with intermittent claudication, drops pain and fear of pain, reduces use of pain medications, and strengthens muscle strength, flexibility, and activities of daily living. (3-10) Great benefits! Your chiropractor cautiously offers when and if to use of back braces for each individual Georgetown back pain patient as he or she heals with Georgetown chiropractic care, knowing the advantages back braces may give along the way.
