Risks of Chiropractic Manipulation
There’s a new review on the safety of chiropractic interventions, published in Spine.
Harriet Hall at Science-Based Medicine has a good synopsis of the adverse effects of chiropractic treatments:
The bottom line: chiropractic manipulations, especially neck manipulations, carry a small risk of serious consequences, a large risk of minor adverse effects; and, depending on the indication, there is little or no evidence that they are effective.
I still love Panda Bear’s rant re: chiropractors.
