Child’s Chiropractic gave me a CHIROPRACTIC STROKE!!! I started going to Dr. Child’s due to a pinched nerve. On my third visit, while he was manipulating my neck, I heard the strangest popping sound within my head and saw a quick bright flash. The pain was excruciating and I told him something was wrong. He chuckled and told me that it was the sound of the gasses releasing from my spine and that it’s all part of the treatment. I told his assistant and the front desk lady that I didn’t feel right. They replied that he treats them all the time and they never get sick. My husband was concerned since he couldn’t get ahold of me, so he rushed home and found me in my car in the garage passed out. I woke up with virtually no recollection of driving home. I don’t even remember pulling into my garage. I had a mind splitting headache, was terribly nauseated and was numb on one side of my body. It was difficult to stay balanced when I got out of my car and tried to walk. My husband called Dr. Child’s while I was vomiting incessantly. They said it had nothing to do with Dr. Child’s treatment and I must be fighting a bug. My husband rushed me to Norman Regional’s ER. After a series of tests at the hospital I was sent to a neurologist for more testing. It was finally determined that I had what is known as a Chiropractic Stroke due to aggressive chiropractic manipulation. After all I have been through, Chuck Child’s still does not take any responsibility for his actions. It’s my hope to warn others, so you won’t have to go through the hellish experience that I went through, because I will never be the same!
Cons: Dangerous
