For my body, I do the following analysis: Is the potential for some temporary relief worth the real possibility of a chiropractor-induced stroke/death.
Answer is no, therefore I don't recommend chiropractors. |
For non-neck manipulations I don't believe there is a risk of stroke. I also would argue for those with employer health coverage a very cheap pain reliever.
I think there is a narrow band of usage for chiro similar in scope to phsyio and massage care.
