A M.D. on getting adusted during pregnancy
I have the honored distinction of being both a physician, a multipara
and chiropractic
patient---before,during, and after each pregnancy. Had it not
been for the
conservative chiropractic care I received during the first pregnancy,
I doubt there
would have been subsequent pregnancies. Though I gained 45 lbs.
by utilizing the
Brewer diet, the back pain I endured was minimal as discomfort
was relieved by
adjustments (manipulation). In my opinion, the only "specialist"
who has the
expertise to determine whether, where, and when my spine needed
adjustment is a
chiropractor. With all due respect, no MD is properly trained
to make that
determination-- physicians should consult chiropractors on these
management issues.
I am looking forward to the time when equality is acknowledged
between the
healthcare practitioners. Since good health is the theoretical
desired outcome, what's
the hold up?
