What Happens When We Adjust the Spine? What do you think? We have the answer coming Thursday.

How safe is Chiropractic Care?

Researchers have found that serious adverse events following cervical spinal manipulation are rare. In a large prospective study, no serious adverse events were reported, with the estimated risk at approximately 6 per 100,000 cervical manipulations. A 2024 systematic review also found no significant increase in adverse events compared with controls, with reported events generally mild.

While serious complications are rare, no healthcare intervention is completely risk-free.

Vitality October Challenge:
Be an Informed Healthcare Partner

This month, take a more active role in understanding your healthcare. At your next chiropractic visit or with another healthcare provider, ask one question about your care that you’ve wondered about but have never asked.

It might be about a technique, why a particular approach is being recommended, potential benefits or risks, or what alternatives are available.

Your health is a partnership. Asking questions helps you make informed decisions and feel confident about the care you receive.

WORDS OF WISDOM

“Knowledge is power. When you understand your body, you can make choices that support your health, confidence, andvitality through every stage of life.”

PATIENTS OF THE MONTH
Ann+Gabe

For many years, we’ve faced a range of health challenges stemming from back and knee surgeries, along with various injuries. Over time, this took a toll not only limiting our ability to sleep well and stay active, but also affecting us emotionally as we navigated chronic pain.

Since beginning chiropractic care, we’ve experienced a significant improvement in both mobility and pain levels. Beyond the physical benefits, it has positively impacted our mood and overall sense of well-being, while also deepening our understanding of what it means to live a healthier lifestyle.

We truly can’t overstate the importance of our relationship with Dr. Kris in this journey. She is not only a highly skilled professional, but also someone who brings genuine warmth and compassion to every visit. We always look forward to seeing both her and Pam. It’s been such a gift to know them.

Thank you for taking such thoughtful and exceptional care of us both.

The Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP) credential (formerly known as NCMP through the North American Menopause Society) is awarded to licensed healthcare professionals who have completed advanced education and passed a competency examination in menopause care. These clinicians have demonstrated additional expertise in helping women navigate perimenopause, menopause, and healthy aging.
