Montecito Chiropractic Center

I had a patient stop coming in for several months due to misinformation around chiropractic causing strokes. He came back and now is optimizing his health with chiropractic.

Even if you’ve heard anecdotes of people who suffer a stroke after seeing a chiropractor, it’s more likely that they went to see the chiropractor because they felt pain caused by the early stages of a stroke. Meaning, the stroke had already started before they went to see the chiropractor. It also means that there is no greater risk of suffering from a stroke if you choose to visit a chiropractor compared to the risks of visiting a medical doctor. Chiropractic care can actually be very beneficial for stroke survivors to support brain function and motor control. ------ Credit: Dr. Heidi Haavik References: Cassidy JD, et al.
