328 patients. 12 months. 12.8 fewer days of bothersome low back pain in the patients who received scheduled chiropractic care compared to those who waited for symptoms to return.

This wasn’t a pilot study or a survey. It was a randomized controlled trial from the Karolinska Institutet, designed specifically to mirror how chiropractors actually deliver maintenance care in real practice.

This is the evidence that turns a conviction into a citable, defensible, peer-reviewed recommendation. The kind you can say with confidence to your doubting neighbor, cynical spouse or to the GP, and to anyone who still thinks ongoing chiropractic care is unnecessary.

Certain nutrients are more necessary, others are more fads. Dr. HYMAN makes some great recommendations here:

Many childhood “ear infections” may actually begin with fluid buildup and pressure rather than a true infection. Because children’s ear canals are more horizontal than adults’, fluid can become trapped more easily, creating discomfort, irritation, and swelling.

Natural approaches to supporting drainage, comfort, and immune function, including massage, moist heat, nutrition, and chiropractic care can all help children dealing with ear infections.

Gentle pediatric chiropractic adjustments help restore normal motion in the upper neck, supporting the muscles and lymphatic pathways that help move fluid away from the ears while promoting healthy nervous system function. By addressing underlying patterns rather than simply masking symptoms, families may have additional options to support their child’s healing and well-being.

"There are enough questions that parents deserve to know the conversation exists.

In 2025, the FDA announced it was initiating a label-change process for acetaminophen products to reflect evidence suggesting use during pregnancy may be associated with increased risk of neurological conditions such as autism and ADHD."

Acetaminophen has been treated as the “safe” option for decades. But new research, lawsuits, and FDA attention have many families wondering what we really know.

Most people think migraines are just a brain chemistry problem. The neuroscience says otherwise.

Migraine is increasingly understood as a central sensitization disorder. The nervous system becomes hypersensitive and lowers its threshold for triggering pain.

Which means the cervical spine isn’t just adjacent to the problem. It’s part of it.

Here’s why:
The upper cervical spine and the trigeminal nerve (the main pain relay for the head and face) share overlapping pathways in the brainstem. When there’s dysfunction at C1–C3, it feeds directly into that system and lowers the threshold at which your brain fires a migraine.

That’s not chiropractic philosophy. That’s anatomy.

And the research backs it up. A Harvard meta-analysis identified two proposed mechanisms: activation of central descending inhibitory pathways through spinal stimulation, and rebalancing of the autonomic nervous system.

Both neurological. Both pointing to the cervical spine as a legitimate therapeutic target.

15.4% of migraineurs are already using chiropractic care. 40% have unmet treatment needs from medication alone.

Thanks Dr. MO Knows.

Back is Best, for all BUT if you are waking up at 3 a.m. or dealing with lower back pain, your sleep position might be the reason. The good news is that side sleeping can help! It can improve your breathing, reduce snoring, and support digestion all leading to a more energized wake up.
