Anecdotes are not enough to condemn chiropractors
Written by Susan Martinuk, Calgary Herald   

Article:

These pages recently featured a column by Dr. John William Kinsinger on the supposed dangers of chiropractic neck manipulation. In it, he made a collection of statements about chiropracty based on the individual case of Sandra Nette, an Edmonton woman who apparently suffered a stroke after a neck manipulation. She is now suing the chiropractor and Alberta Health in a case that Kinsinger says will put certain chiropractic practices on trial.

The column is filled with terminology that pushes emotional buttons, and claims chiropractic is a non-scientific profession, which is particularly ironic since he fails to provide much scientific evidence to support his own claims.

These missing facts are important because they reveal an entirely different story about strokes and chiropractic care -- and it's one that all readers deserve to know. | READ ARTICLE
