Chiropractic has an excellent safety record. While it’s not unusual to hear about injury due to drug interaction, overdose, or misuse in the medical profession, it is extremely rare to hear of a problem resulting from chiropractic care. According to a recent government study in New Zealand, chiropractic care is “remarkably safe”.
Chiropractic doctors are trained to practice and perform hundreds to thousands of manipulations before delivering them to a patient. To become a Doctor of Chiropractic, the candidate must first pass the demanding National Board Examination. Then, to apply for a professional license, the doctor must pass an even more rigorous test before being given the privilege to practice as a Doctor of Chiropractic.
Guided by a thorough case history and examination, your doctor will evaluate your individual needs and determine a course of treatment This conservative, natural approach to better health avoids the dangers associated with invasive procedures and addictive drugs.
