Whalen Chiropractic

Just gave a zoom webinar to a large group of MD's (orthopedists, neurologist, pain management) on headaches and chiropractic, based on the scientific literature. A few were surprised at what we do and that there is a great deal of scientific support for it. I am always amazed when I see a new patient who has had chronic headaches and has never tried chiropractic. This doesn't work for everyone, but it can the life of some people. It is safer than taking medications, even over the counter. If you know someone who has never tried chiropractic for their headaches, tell them to give it a try. Wayne Whalen, D.C.

This is a pretty specialized journal paper I co-authored, but it shows how 40 year old laws still discriminate against Doctors of Chiropractic and chiropractic patients in forcing us to obtain unneeded xrays on some patients.

Hard to believe, but it is true:

We are seeing more and more injuries like this!

In case you wondered:

Doctors of chiropractic specialize in the neuro-musculoskeletal system. #ThinkChiropractic

Malpractice insurance is a pretty good reflection of actual risks. Chiropractors pay probably the lowest malpractice on any health care specialty besides massage. MD's pay substantially more. Internal Medicine docs in Los Angeles-Orange County, California pay. $8,274. General surgeons in Los Angeles-Orange County, California: $41,775

Think of this as an airliner falling out of the sky every day....

We can help with pain, and chiorpractic has been recommended by the medical community as a non-drug, non-surgical option for many forms of health care, and in particular for neck or back pain!

Shameless self-promotion from a review from one of my favorite patients. You can see why I like her so much!

I know there is a lot of controversy still about masks. This study might help with the answer. In any event, if the science is wrong, we will be inconvenienced. If it is right, we might save someone's life. Pretty reasonable tradeoff I think.

Proud to announce the release of the Best Practices document I co-authored on Chronic Pain was just published. Not exactly light reading, but hopefully it will help to further standardize care, and further reduce the need for drugs.
