From time to time, there is discusssion about the saftey of chiripractic care. I have been in practice for 28 years and I have never had a patient experience a stroke in my office. Many time people just repeat what they hear - and what they hear is not the truth. This video looks at the literature concerning the safety of chiropractic and the fact that there is NO increase risk of stroke with a cervical adjustment. The risk could be that you may eliminate your pain and get rid of your headaches.

Records from insurance and court cases have constantly shown that
chiropractic is the safest portal of entry health care available to the
public today. Although no healthcare procedures are 100% safe, chiropractic
stands on its record of safety and effectiveness unmatched in
healthcare.
America’s healthcare-system-induced deaths are the third leading cause of the death in the U.S., after heart disease and cancer.According to several research studies in the last decade, a total of 225,000 Americans per year have died as a result of their medical treatments:
• 12,000 deaths per year due to unnecessary surgery
• 7000 deaths per year due to medication errors in hospitals
• 20,000 deaths per year due to other errors in hospitals
• 80,000 deaths per year due to infections in hospitals
• 106,000 deaths per year due to negative effects of drugs
Fortunately there are natural alternatives that are safe, and without the life-threatening side effects. First among these is Chiropractic, the largest drug-free, natural healing profession in the United States.
It's hard for me to understand why the safety of chiropractic care is even a question. The real question is the safety of all the medicine we put into our bodies to superficially heal us.
