The vertebral artery runs in between holes on the sides of the cervical vertebrates. When you perform an HVLA manipulation of the neck, it's certainly plausible that injury to the arteries can occur. I mean from a physical standpoint. I'm not saying chiropractic strokes are a frequent occurrence or even that the chiropractors are always to blame for a stroke. But a chiropractic stroke is definitely not impossible to happen. It's important to inform patients about this risk. One thing I've always been curious about is how much space there is between the vertebral arteries and the holes they run through. That will certainly let us know how much risk there is of a chiropractic stroke occurring.

@@bar8665 long story. went to chiro. to get active release technique for soft tissue ITBS running injury (was a marathoner). chiro suddenly cracked my neck w/o warning and said cracking should help my situation. went home and 2 hrs later, couldn't move my left hand and face was drooping. was by myself. eventually could not stand or walk. after two days trapped upstairs finally got to phone downstairs after making it down the stairs and called 911. was quickly diagnosed with mild stroke and was in rehab hospital for a month. left hand was paralyzed. after much HARD WORK i was able to rehab my left hand and the rest of my entire left side to a certain extent. still have weakness in entire left side of body ...about 25% weaker and have tremendous mental fatigue every day. so i sued the chiro and lost after an expert witness MD lied thru his teeth saying i was a ticking time bomb. stroke was 12 years ago at age 52. the industry sticks up for each other as this video demostrates. same thing happened to kevin sorbo, hercules tv show actor. i'm in facebook group where many people have shared similar stories, many much worse than mine. .

@@bar8665 no issues other than itbs from running overuse. MD expert witness was entitled to his opinion. wasn't first time for this guy in these types of lawsuits. no doubt, he's making a lot of money. my own dr. told me what caused my stroke...the adjustment. it wasn't a temporal coincidence....obviously.

Kevin, May I ask what happened. I am a chiropractor (DC) as well as a Medical Neurologist (MD). I try to educate Chiropractors about this, but no one will listen.

Funny.... 4 hours after I had an adjustment in my neck may 2020, I had a wave of paralysis that started at my shoulders and worked it's way to my toes and i blacked out. 4 days later I came to and I was in the ICU, intubated and paralyzed from the neck down 🤔 I know its not a coincidence for you and I. Is it? Lol I'm tellin ya.. chiropractors do adjustments that cause strokes 💯
