The risks associated with the chiropractic adjustment have been studied many times. Any intervention that may pose a risk to a patient seeking help with his or her condition should be considered and studied. With risks in mind, researchers are gleaning interesting information from the data that Medicare is releasing. Dr. Mark Studin does a great job of laying out the most recent information regarding the risks and potential benefits associated with chiropractic adjustments, as well as the risks associated with the same demographic of people who chose to be evaluated by a medical doctor. This is a groundbreaking, first-look at information that is sure to broaden your understanding of where chiropractic can fit into the future healthcare model. Flip to page 24 to learn more.
