I've had several surgeons tell me that they see 1 person a year paralyzed from chiropractic manipulations. It's not that they are unsafe... it's that they are unsafe if you have instability or spinal cord compression.

They help a lot of people and I'm not saying that they are not good.... I'm just suggesting that unless you know your neck is OK... don't let them crunch it!

All the best,

Mark
