Answers:
I just had to address the suggestion that a stroke was brought on by a chiropractor!.!.!.

This has been THOUROUGHLY tested and articles published in all the related major scientific journals in the past 5 years have demonstrated the link is SIMPLY NOT SOUND!.

**It's not physically possible for a chiropractic adjustment to CAUSE a stroke in a healthy individual!.**

There have been incidents when a chiropractor MISSED THE SIGNS of an impending stroke when a patient presented with headache, etc!. This happens with MDs, too!. (Even emergency room visits!) It's not about the force of the adjustment, it's about missing the signs that a stroke is imminent!.

- - People more likely to see a chiro are more likely to have seen a chiro before their stroke!.
- - People more likely to see an MD are more likely to have seen an MD before their stroke!.

I'm not a chiropractor, I'm actually a Naturopathic Doctor and a "science geek!." I've read the articles in full text; I know the anatomy; I'm familiar with the force applied in an adjustment!.!.!. I've studied the SCIENCE!.

It's time to debunk this unfortunate misconception!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've been to chiropractors for many different reasons back pain, alternative medicine, everything!.

i have been to many other doctors and it's almost like they didn't even care and told me to rub a cream on it and take some pills and i will feel better!. but it never works and i continued to be sick!.

so i decided to see a chiropractor that is also experienced in acupuncture and alternative medicine!. I did these weird allergy test through them and it turns out i was allergic to yeast and had these severe problems!. I fallowed their procedure taking herbs and elimating yeast from my diet and I got a lot better!. no other doctor wanted to even do allergy test on me!. (knock on wood) i haven't been sick in like 2 years!. where i was sick like 6 times a year!. i will never go to another doctor again unless its a chiropractor or before researching alternative medicine first!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Tough question!. A chiropractor makes adjustments to the spine through manipulation!. The practice believes this can cure a variety of ailments but, in reality, a chiropractor cannot fix any condition!. At best they would just make your muscles feel better!. It would be best to first see your doctor or an orthopedic specialist!. I would advise that your do everything you can to avoid chiropractic treatment as it will often do more harm than good!.

Chiropractors have to believe that everything causes conditions that only they can fix so they can convince patients that we can't live comfortably without visits twice per week!.

I had a stroke last year as a result of chiropractic treatment and have since made it a priority to raise awareness of the dangers of chiropractic care!. Please visit this website to read my story and similar ones of other victims so you may be aware of the risks and make an informed decision about treatment!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Straight chiropractors believe "subluxations" are the cause of most medical problems!. According to chiropractic, a "subluxation" is a misalignment of the spine that allegedly interferes with nerve signals from the brain!. However, there is no scientific evidence for spinal subluxations and none have ever been observed by medical practitioners such as orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, or radiologists!. Chiropractors think that by adjusting the misalignments they can thereby restore the nerve signals and cure health problems!.

Repeat business is the name of the game!.
