Dr. Stephen Perle Discusses Chiropractic and Stroke

Dr. Stephen Perle who is professor at the Bridgeport College of Chiropractic discusses the current scientific evidence based findings on the association of chiropractic neck manipulation and stroke.

This is a rare event that has been shown in a recent study to be just as prevalent for someone with neck pain and/or headache after visiting a primary medical doctor as after visiting a chiropractic doctor, which strengthens the current thinking that the the strokes are usually already in progress at the time of the visit. Remember association does not equal causation.
Below is a link to a podcast of Dr. Perle discussing this issue.
