  • thanks now i know not to crack my knuckles 1 question is it true that if you crack your knuckles when you become old your hands like shake and so does your finger is that true doc

  • @REDTEAM22003 Be careful! There is more to cracking you own neck than you think. You are not doing what you might think a chiropractor does, namely careful and skillful evaluation. It is guaranteed that you are cracking the SAME JOINT, over and over again, and, like the Dr says in the video, it is NOT the joint that needs cracked at all. Repetitive self-cracking will lead to micro-trauma to the same bones and soft tissues, leading to complications later, and possibly stroke.

  • @porilster You don't think there was a coincidence between the fact that you cracked your neck "vigorously at least once a day" and the very fact that you had a vertebral artery desication at age 28??? You cracked that SAME JOINT, over and over again, and you suffered the consequence of all of those repetitive micro-traumas to that one place, vertebral artery included. Your chiropractor would have told you this if you had a proper history and evaluation. But you obviously know better, right?

  • I am 28 years old very healthy and non smoking and I also crack my neck vigorously at least once every day or that is I used to. Last month I had a stroke because cracking my neck caused a tear in my neck artery that caused a clot which went to my brain. This happens more often than people know or think. I bet each time a chiropractor goes to crack your neck they don't pre warn you that you have a slight risk of having a stroke after this. I doubt they would get much business.

  • this dr. sounds like a jackass......we should send him money to do the same things we can do ourself
