| "Anyway, moral of the story: Don't smoke and dint eat piles of shit; it'll get you one day." I'll add this warning as a former chiropractic student. I sat in back of a perfectly healthy 20 something classmate in Chiropractic school. He was getting weekly Ghonstead Rotaries(basically twisting the Atlas, and Axis, and probally a few cervical vertebrae?). Well on Sunday, he was biking with his beautiful wife, and father in-law. He suddenly stopped peddling, and had a major stroke, and died on the spot. Even through Chiorpractic claims to have a low rate of vessel tears; I honestly think the adjustments caused his death? Sharon Stone was undergoing weekly Chiropractic adjustments. The Chiropractor was trying to cure the elusive Subluxation.
She had a bilateral stroke late one night.(I have no idea what Chiropractic adjustments she was getting--there's literally over 50 different techniques.) A famous vascular surgeon just happened to be giving a talk in San Francisco. The hospital contacted him and he repaired both vessels. She is so lucky to be alive today. Be wary of any Chiropractor who snaps your neck. (I dropped out of Chiropractic school because I realized the subluxation is so rare, only a few have been documented, and they are always due to blunt force trama, like horrendous automobile accidents, and the like. I could only find two verified medical subluxations when I did my own research in the 90's.) I used to snap my own neck when I was in school. It was a nervous habit. I'd turn my neck, hear the C02 pop, and feel better--for a few minutes; I thought? I stopped the nasty habit years ago. I haven't carried any tension in my neck for the last few decades. I hope your father is feeling better. |
He's waiting for a surgeon to have a meeting about him now. Not sure what the state of things is TBH.
