Safety

In the words of a New Zealand government study, “Chiropractic is remarkably safe.”

Baseless Concern

Critics, skeptics and those who misunderstand chiropractic often use safety as a way to discourage people from considering chiropractic. Usually it concerns adjustments to the neck. These concerns are baseless.

Chiropractic Wanabes

There just aren’t a lot of recorded instances of chiropractors producing adverse reactions from neck adjustments. When there is a rare newsworthy event, it’s often been at the hands of other practitioners who have taken a weekend course or lack the training and years of education that today's chiropractors receive.

What’s Safe?

Virtually everything has risks associated with it. For example: Statistically, taking an over-the-counter pain reliever is considerably more dangerous than chiropractic care. As is driving your car, taking a shower (slip and fall) or eating at a new restaurant (food poisoning). Relax, knowing these are much riskier than receiving chiropractic care in our practice!

Dr. Rob Asks some important questions of interest to Plantation residents - Chiropractor Plantation Dr. Rob Asks...

How do you know when you're healthy?
Ask most Plantation residents this simple question and you're likely to hear, "When you feel good" or "When you're at your proper weight for your height" or "When you have lots of energy and vitality." Great answers. But our chiropractic patients know that true health is when your body is working as it was designed. True health is how you function, not how you feel.
Would you rather feel good or be healthy?
Ask most people in Plantation and they want to feel good. Careful! Would you take medicine that makes you feel good, rather than vomit to expel improperly prepared food? Every chiropractic patient knows that you can't measure your health by how you feel. True health is when your body works as it should.
