My step mom had a series of strokes as a result of this same thing and now has enough deficit that she is permanently disabled, walks with a limp and the one side of her face droops. No more adjustments for me

never did it.
never will. a friend had some serious back injuries that were actually helped over a year with a chiropractor. I drove him to several sessions, and there was none of that neck-twisting shit. |

I've been helped many times over the past 40 years by chiropractors. Deaths caused by medical malpractice by MD's is much higher than gun deaths.

I was going for a few years, and was down to a maintenance adjustment once every 2 to 3 weeks. My stress seems to end up in my neck, so while the neck-cracking always freaked me out, it was always instant bliss. I got rid of a problem customer ... )25% of my business - 95% of my headaches) a couple of years ago, and haven't been to my chiro since. |

Every year chiropractors kill people with these high velocity neck 'adjustments' which end up tearing the verterbral artery.
There's nothing "natural" about these high velocity 'adjustments'. |

Also, for the most part chiropractors are doing what is more or less a sham treatment. 90% of what they do will neither help you or hurt you. So, very low risk (except for these high velocity neck manipulations).
A cardiac bypass on the other hand, might actually save your life. On the other hand, if it goes bad it might kill you. The risk of doing harm is much greater when you're doing a procedure or using a drug that isn't complete bullshit. |

$15 Quick back adjustment vs $60 painful massage. Easy choice.
I was a skeptic until I was laid up bad for days and someone took me to the bone cracker. Now I'm a believer. He's straightened me out a few times. Doc says nothing I can really do about L5/S1. Little material left in there. Deal with it.  |

MDs might as well pay a bounty for severing wrong limbs, as often as they do it.. I was two counties away when my friend got heat exhaustion cutting the grass and went to the ER where the docs rehydrated him with dextrose solution without asking questions or consulting his chart. My diabetic friend was killed DRT in the ER. There are thousands of people maimed and killed by inattention and incompetence by MDs. People killed by chiropractors aren't a fly on the MDs' pile of corpses and wrongly severed limbs.

Certainly the oncologists treating your cancer has more potential to do harm than your chiro, but he also has more potential to help you. |
