Research on STROKE shows...

...there is no evidence of excess risk of stroke following chiropractic spinal manipulation, according to a February 2008 report in the journal Spine. In the study, researchers noted that patients are no more likely to suffer a stroke following chiropractic treatment than they would after visiting their family doctor’s office.

According to the study’s authors, “Because the association between chiropractic visits and VBA stroke is not greater than the association between PCP visits and VBA stroke, there is no excess risk of VBA stroke from chiropractic care.” To find out more click here.

Q. Will insurance cover chiropractic after national healthcare reform?
A. At this time nobody knows. But the American Chiropractic Association has created a website for people who think that any national healthcare plan should include direct access to chiropractic services as a guaranteed, covered benefit. At www.ChiroVoice.org you can sign up to be notified at crucial moments to join in a collective effort to contact legislators.

Once you log in, www.ChiroVoice.org will give you the latest on the issues. The easy-to-use format allows you to send email directly to our legislators in Washington. It's a simple, easy way to contribute to ensuring access to essential services delivered by a Doctor of Chiropractic.

Most health insurance plans offer direct access to chiropractic care without a referral. That includes managed care plans and Medicare as well as automobile insurance and worker's compensation insurance. When a referral is needed, we find it is rarely a problem to get one.
