A Blog By Some Chiropractors in Burlington Ontario…

Where do you get your health information? Do you use the internet? How current is the information? Who wrote the article? What are they basing their opinion on?

Evidence Based Physiotherapy and Chiropractic

Quite often we encounter new patients at our Burlington Chiropractic Clinic and our Burlington Physiotherapy Clinic who have used the internet to learn about their condition or injury. Unfortunately, internet search engines do not ensure that you are getting accurate information and they do not validate the qualifications of the author. When dealing with your health, this can be dangerous. Sometimes people are given incorrect or even harmful advice when they are simply making an effort to become more informed about their health. A very common example are patients who have been given specific stretches or exercises for lower back pain that may actually aggravate their condition!

So what internet sources do you trust? How can you be sure that this website will provide accurate information?
