i will remind people that the procedure of cervical manipulation is not only performed by chiropractors but also performed by some physical therapists(increasing numbers) and osteopathes. regarding “stroke” i would encourage people to research the numerous/various OTC/prescription drugs related to “stroke”.there’s also plenty of information regarding drug interactions associated with “stroke”.

I can evicerate your mislead contention that chiropractic does’nt increase the immune response. Chiropractic does enhance the immune response. I want you to research this for yourself, you…you..quitter and switcher.

Actually, a study done at National showed it does, albeit not for very long ( a few hours). And RA is a condition that is better off using mobilization techniques rather than adjusting.

Actually only 6% of all nerve fibers are sensory for pain. That being said, your point is well taken. We need to be mindful of how the nervous system impacts the function of the entire body, not just pigeon-hole ourselves into being back pain specialists.

While there is no data to support the claim that chiropractic care can keep one from succumbing to an infectious disease, there is data in the peer reviewed literature that chiropractic manipulation leads to a burst of leukocyte production. By the way, congrats on pursuing your MD / PhD. That’s awesome and I wish you well on your new endeavors.

Chiropractic is proven to increase the level of white blood cells circulating in the blood stream, which, common sense dictates, improves immune response.
To deny the systemic benefits of chiropractic is absurd. Only about 10% of nerve fibers in our body convey pain. What about the 90% that controls sensation? Heart rhythm? Bronchial dilation? Mucous secretion? Etc. Do you honestly believe that irritation at the nerve root only causes a 4/5 muscle response with no visceral component?

I firmly believe you missed the point of chiropractic and feel medicine will be your savior when in actuality you will feel the blunt force of the many misplaced realities of medicine. Good luck though.

Your right on R9pt9. Chiropractic is very safe and efficient. I love detecting and correcting sublations of the uppper carvical region and then letting the body do the rest. What happened to drevicerator below. Did he leave chiropractic because he wasn’t able to understand how chiropractic works and not able to cope with patients? I’ve read that the few DC’s who leave chiropractic are not “people persons” and when they go into medicine they then recieve a rude awakening of medicines problems.

while it shouldn’t be said that it increases the immune system it most def. changes it for the better. ex. Clarence S. Gonstead from crippled with R.A. to the largest chiropractic practice EVER!

Most folks are in neurologic imbalance, sympathetic dominance.
That’s bad for the immune system and the tonal model of Chiropractic would insist that balance would help, it is a matter of balance!
Keep studying, we do know that medical treatment and drugs account for hundreds of thousands of deaths per year in the USA alone!
They don’t even know what causes disease except that 70+% is preventable by lifestyle changes alone.
We should rule Musculoskeletal and be seeking to help visceral sufferers

Chiropractic does NOT increase the immune system.. if this was true it would be a contraindication to immune diseases such as RA.
I am a DC and currently obtaining my MD PhD…. let us not mislead the public. Stick to musculoskeletal disorders… we ARE good at that!

In addition to correcting immuno suppressant vertebral subluxations, an added bonus is mobilization of white cells (infection fighting) from lymph.
Chiropractic is trully great for everyone!

If you have back/shoulder problems etc. Don’t hesitate to see a chiro. The difference afterwards is like you wouldn’t believe. I wouldn’t have been able to sit here and write this, hadn’t it been for my chiro.

More of the general public need to be educated on the benefits of chiro.

I’ve found that in my practice, relief of somatovisceral problems happens very quickly (3-6 treatments). We would be naive, of course, to believe that chiropractic can cure everything… afterall, nothing is a panacea. But the potential positive visceral effects from adjustments, imho, have been grossly understated and/or ignored in research due to inconsistency in symptom CAUSE, not treatment.

There is a great deal of science and neurology that proves how chiropractic manipulation affects positive changes in, not only neuro-musculoskeletal problems, but many other types of conditions…

PS – It is also a safe therapy, as even insurance companies are aware. That’s why chiropractic malpractice insurance is about 1/10 of what an average medical doctor pays.

The Central Nervous syatem-CNS-(the Brain and Spinal cord, along with the peripheral nerves) controls every cell, tissue and organ in the body-Gray’s Anatomy-39th edition
Stress on the nerve system decreases immune system function and integrity.
Subluxations by definition interfere with proper communication.

Dr Brian, please educate the layman. What do nerves have to do with the immune system?
#22 by drbriangarrett on February 27th, 2010

probably because subluxation(misalignment) decreases immune function and adjustments correct them!

If you don’t mind my asking, I’ve found that when I have a cold and I get adjusted, I clear right up… why?

as a matter of fact i have an appointment with my chiropractor today at 3:15 haha. It’s the best medicine in the world…allowing your own body to heal itself the way it was intended to.
….or you could just guess at what’s wrong and gobble up any number of pills that are probably doing more harm than good than have them taken off the market because people are killing themselves in record numbers…
i’ll go with chiropractic.
