The answer is absolutely, yes.
Here is the accepted published data on the safety of medicine vs. chiropractic. We'll let you decide.
- The risk of a stroke from a chiropractic adjustment is 1 in 1 MILLION (Haldeman DC, MD, PHD, Top Clin Chiro. 1995; 2(3))
You are more likely to be struck by lightning!! Don't be fooled by the media.
- "The Risk of a neurological complication from a chiropractic adjustment for children is 1 in 25O MILLION" ( J of Vert. Subluxation Research, Jun 1998). It is barely even conscionable
This is the accepted data. Compare this information to medicine and you decide what is safe, and which choice is better for your family:
- "40,000 deaths per year in Canada from medical mistakes." (Macleans, Aug. 13, 2001)
- "The Risk of death from Anesthesia is 1 in 1000." (Chapman-Smith, The Chiro Report, May 1994)
- Tylenol kills more people than COCAINE! (Jan.12, 1998 Forbes Magazine, "J&J's Dirty Little Secret")
- "180,000 deaths per year occur from medical mistakes, the equivalent of 3 jumbo jet crashes every 2 days!" (Dr. Lucien Leape, Harvard school of Public health -- JAMA, Dec. 21 1994).
The data clearly shows that natural chiropractic care is by far the safest option.
