    By no means do I dismiss your claims.

    Rather I was paraphrasing the diagnosis given to my brother in law by a Neurologist from UCFS.
    Hope I didn't come off as insensitive, I use cervical manipulations as part of my practice. I have it done to my self. I hope that he recovers fully.

    By all means everyone should ask their chiro,PT or DO if having their neck manipulated is appropriate in all cases. I only use a cervical rotary neck manipulation (chiropractic adjustment or Osteopathic manipulation as it's commonly known) when I can get the joint to move when I need to with other neck manipulations. I don't prescribe to the theory it needs done on every visit if someone is asymptomatic.

    How's his recovery coming along?
    Thanks NACH.

    The event occurred a few months ago and he's doing well, there was no brain damage.

    He was told to take a baby aspirin for a month then continue living a healthy active lifestyle.

    I'm sure he could use a good HIT session from you but his current trainer is a lot easier on the eyes than you, too bad she plays for the other team.

    I sensed no sensitivity.

    Suppose I should have been more through in the OP.

    I only wanted people to be aware of the possible risks and to speak with their Chiropractor before having their neck manipulated.

    He's a tally gut 6'4"ish and had been seeing this Chiropractor strictly for a prolonged neck ailment.

    Thanks NACH

    Very Glad to hear he had a full recovery!

    Sounds easy enough... I assume by the bottom he's working out strongly again

    I'm sure she is haha - it would be badass if we all did get a session in tho
    Better shape than you?! She must be a bad trainer
