Chiropractic spinal adjustment

[Syncletica]

Has anyone with both PD and osteoporosis had a chiropractic spinal adjustment? If so, was it beneficial or injurious? Has anyone experienced a compression fracture as a result?

Thank you for your assistance in helping me make a decision regarding this procedure.

With osteoporosis I would choose Physiotherapy rather than Chiro. Choose a therapist who specialises in back problems.

Thank you for taking a moment to respond. I do have a daily comprehensive physical therapy program. I was intent on exploring additional therapeutic interventions as adjuncts to the present approach to optimize the results.

I don't know about chiropractic, but for osteoporosis you should be taking vitamins D, K1 & K2, and a couple of mineral cofactors. Good information on this here: tinyurl.com/hya5dwd

An over 65 woman friend of mine not taking bisphosphonates embarked on this program and reported that on her latest DEX scan that her bone density had increased.

Thank you! I do take the supplements noted. After carefully researching the deleterious effects of bisphosphonates, I, as a 73-year old lady, opted for a natural approach also.
