It’s not JUST about the risks… it’s about the risks AND benefits
All treatments for pain come with some rare but very serious adverse events… such as medications and even exercise!
But spinal manipulations do not have any significant benefits for pain or function in the short or long term over placebos or other less risky treatments!
So what’s the point!
If the benefits of the treatment are non significant and other safer alternatives exist then it doesn’t matter how small the risks are… it’s just not worth!
Now for all the comments of those with bias and deeply vested interests desperately trying to justify the use of manips by contorting themselves and the narrative into some extreme positions! 😎
Professional athletes are sold more bulls**t bro science than anyone else.

This is wild.
🧨 Troyes🇫🇷 players throwing flares back into the fans in the stands as the match is abandoned 🙈
📉 Troyes fans protesting as they face back-to-back relegations to the third tier of French football
🌚 A reminder that Troyes are one of 13 clubs within the Manchester City football group (CFG)
💰 Troyes' record signing Savio🇧🇷 (€6.5m) has never played for them! He is currently on loan at another CFG club, Girona🇪🇸 and has 16 goals & assists in 32 games in La Liga as Girona sit 3rd
🆕 Savio has now agreed a summer transfer - to Man City 🙃
💶 He is valued at £40m but the fee City will pay has not been disclosed.....
✅ Both Man City & Girona will be allowed to play in the Champions League next season, because CFG owns less than 50% of Girona (47%) - so they are not classed as having the same owners as it's not a majority stake
🤷♂️ In completely unrelated matters, the president of the board of Girona🇪🇸, who also owns 16% of the club is Mr Pere Guardiola. Brother of Pep.

You’d be correct in thinking I’d misread this and thought the most mental thing to ever happen had happened.

This is the promo I was talking about yesterday. Fantastic stuff. One of the best in recent memory. xitter.gq/UFCEurope/status/16356…
Leon Edwards just knocked out the best pound for pounder fighter in the world and has one of the wildest back stories to boot. Still can’t even put a bet on him to win #Spoty .

“The magic of the FA Cup” - Literally every country has the same cup competition with the same format! If anything, the premier league and championship teams are more prone to putting out second string teams lessening the “magic”.
