this is a joke. I'd hear this "doctor" explain the biological basis for him treating MS or MG or parkinsons. It's unbelievable chiropractors are not shut down for false advertising. I am in dental school and I guarantee you that my neuroanatomy course was more advanced than his "neurology" courses. all he can say is: subluxation, communication pathway, inflammation. so vauge. really saddens me that people believe this.
@nickodemus15 This is obviously a dumbed-down advertisement for the lay person. He's trying to use language that people can understand rather than going over their head. Chiropractic school actually focuses heavily on neurology. Plus, to be a "chiropractic neurologist", you have to complete a 300 hr post-doc program. It's not BS. Check it out. Pretty cool stuff.
my chiropractic neurologist has helped me invaluably. what i thought was tennis elbow was a muscle 'spasm' on the other side of the arm... probably wouldn't have had the problem attended to (and corrected) in the same way if i saw anyone else...

this doctor is has a diplomate in chiropractic neurology, which is recognized by the american chiropractic association, it is accredited. He "is" a certified chiropractic neurologist, not a medical neurologist, who uses drugs and surgery.
In your understanding of pharmacology, I'm sure you already know that pharmaceuticals do not create long-lasting changes in plasticity, but only temporary. They do have an important role in healthcare, but are not meant for use beyond a short amount of time. I often co-treat with pharmaceutical intervention to restore normal function in many instances
This allows the cell to approach a normal resting membrane potential along with establishing new neuronal pathways, called plasticity.
Also, a Chiropractic Neurologist does not limit their treatment and diagnosis to the spine. In fact, much of what we do is directly involved with the brain, i.e. Auditory, Taste, Olfactory, Vestibular, Optokinetics, etc...
I've been seeing a chiropractic neurologist for over two years and is the best thing that could of happen to me. Dr. Alfonsi has treated my upper and lower back and with her help I'm back to normal now. I see her three times a year for maintenance now. She now only treated me but gave instructions and exercises to do to take care of my back. There are not that many chiropractic neurologist and one ought to not comment on what one doesn't know.
What board/degree qualifies this guy to call himself (or to even allow themselves to be referred to as( a neurologist. Didi he do 3-4 years of postgraduate training after 4 years of graduate (medical) school like the real deal?
If he is claiming that he can treat parkinsons w/ manipulation then he doesnt even understand that basic pathophysiciologic/neurochemical basis of that disease.
I smell a shameless marketing ploy here, and I bet his state board loves its!
Its a Diplomate from Carrick Institute for Graduate Studies - Chiropractic Neurology,
Carrick Institute for Graduate Studies offers an exciting program of study in Clinical Neurology for Chiropractors ... Certification Program Dallas, TX ...

Its producing the smartest Neurologist on the planet.
Whats next, chiropractic rheumatologists, obstetricians and pediatricians?
Much if not most of neurology doesnt even involve the spinal cord/vertebrae. What on earth do chiropractors think they can do adjusting "subluxations" for parkinsons, epilepsy ect.? The basic neuroanatomy is well outside of their would be area of expertise.
Neurology especially is an area where pharmacology has a primary role to play.
Actually they learn far more practically that any Neurology Programs in the nation that don't deal with surgery. And they can treat FAR more problem. There are chiropractic pediatricians, but rheumatologists are a joke to being with. I've been treating rheumatoid arthritis easily buy getting patients of GRAINS. All medicine does is call it incurable and toss drugs at it (that don't work).
And then not adjusting for these problems. Its so elaborate and detailed it would blow your mind.
2-3 years yes, residency no. But they are far better trained that most practicing neurologist. Neurology includes everything. If you think Chiropractic is just about the spine then you don't know what Chiropractic is about.
Better trained than a practicing neurologist? HAHAHA, you are joking, right?
Please explain to me how a chiropracty "neurologist" is going to effictively treat parkinson's or any other disease which is the bread and butter of real neurologists. An answer complete with a phsyiological description of the MOA would be nice.
Joking, not at all. Far better trained. I mean they can't do surgery but for finding and correcting motor neuron lesions there far better equipped. Why do you think M.D.'s are taking this course in US, Europe and Asia.
As for Parkinson's through proper adjustments, specific fast stretches and a ton of things you wouldn't know about they can reduce the progression and hopefully the symptoms. What can a regular Neurologist do? NOTHING. Just drugs that fix nothing and surgery that won't help.
They sure do. I lesion is something as simple as a misfiring joint, increase frequency of firing (IFF) on one side. Easy to remedy with an adjustment. Quite amazing to have someones hearing come back in one visit. And quite rewarding. As well as many other problems. I specialize in correcting blood sugar, insulin, inflammatory markers, etc.
They are the only Doctor's who can and are pulling people out of a COMA and treating them effectively, and without drugs which do nothing but make the patient more toxic. For a An answer complete with a physiological description of the MOA why don't you ask them. Or find one in you area. It not my job to prove it or anything else to you. FInd out the truth on you own cowy1.
"Find out the truth"? I've tried and found zero evidence for chiropractic and the efficacy of the adjustment over asprin for LBP, let alone parkinsons.
From what i've read and heard on this video, I can say that you don't know shit about the nervous system.
Of course, you could easily prove me wrong by explaining how the "adjustment" fixes motor neuron lesions.
Yes find out for yourself. Not only am I correcting subluxation-lesions. Find out what both terms mean, on your own please. I'm also correcting diabetes, every stomach problem you can name (easy actually) and many other probnlems
See an Applied Kinesiologist or Chiropractic Neurologist yourself and find out on your own.
AK is pure, pure quackery. It is absolutley zero interexaminer reliability and has never been validated as better than placebo by any reputable scientific study.
I have a simple question for you that no one else has been able to answer and I can't figure out for the life of me; how did Harvey Lillard get his hearing back? Can you explain it using proper anatomical pathways? I mean, the guy was supposedly completely deaf and Palmer racked his back into place and cured him.
The editorial you referenced is crap; the guy claims Harvey's hearing was restored through the ANS. It is followed up by some case reports about hearing restoration following an "adjustment".
In case you didn't learn this in school, the vestibulocochlear nerve runs from the cochlea to the pons, which is nowhere near the back or neck.
So, how did DD Palmer cure Harvey Lillard of his deafness?
I don't really care how it happened but it surely does. I've been helping people with numerous problems for 12 years, and with the Kansas City Chiefs for 3. Hired twice to treat the wrestler's at Smakdown Manila and on and on. They don't seek me out, hire me, and pay me for a reason. Cause it works plain and simple. I currently have been giving seminars on Cholesterol and nutrition to medical Doctor because they don't understand it.
Har, so you're one of those kind of chiropractors. You had me going, telling me to look it up myself, acting all high and mighty like you had some kind of special knowledge. You might as well admit now that your belief in chiropractic is religious, not rational.
As for atheles and celebrities, so what? They pay for all kinds of stupid shit because they have money to burn and egos that need coddling. Certainly what you are providing to them isn't healthcare.
It can be explain neurologically. Like I said its not my job to prove it to you or anyone. Whats your beef with it anyway. It works, I don't care HOW.
As far as special knowledge goes I specialize in the nutrition, or haven't you noticed.
Chiropractic, done correctly is the best form of health care. Your referring to "disease care" -drug, surgery.....which is all they have.
If you find out how Harvey Lillard was cured of his deafness, or my two other patients, neurologically, please let me know. Love to find out how it works.
What happened was that Palmer fabricated the story. He was telling a joke and slapped Lillard on the back. Later Lillard told him he thought he was hearing better. Palmer lied.
Like you were there. Anyway I know of NO Chiropractor that promotes restoring hearing threw the Chiropractic so its a moot point. No correcting blood sugar problems, digestive problems and other inflammatory conditions I'm proud to say I can and do do it better than most medical doctors. See my blog, and vids please.
And the evidence that chiropracty does anything for blood sugar or digestive problems? You really don't have a very good grip on anatomy or physiology, do you?
"chiropracty doesn't do anything for visceral organ disease." Educated individuals say chiropractic. absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. that's like saying cigarette smoking is does not cause disease in the 1940s.
Its isn't offered online or one week. This program is hundreds of hours long. Some 40, 12 hour weekends are minimal. How do you think you can finish in a week. Again someone who knows nothing about it.
This is an authentic degree and I for one have been seeing a chiropractic neurologist in San Francisco who has done wonders for me and other people I know. There are not that many individuals with this degree but they do know what they are doing, you should try one yourself before making such comments. If you're in California or SF to be specific look for Dr. Alfonsi
Well, if you understand gene expression as it occurs in the brain, then you must know that the receptors in the spine account for 90% of the activation that is created in our neuronal pools. When activation occurs in a neuron, gene expression is created which allows the DNA to code for new proteins that is uses when repairing or building new structures in the cell. These may include, but are not limited to; receptors, mitochondria, Na/K pumps, axonal generation, etc...
This is some of the biggest BS I've ever come across.
