Guest guest Posted January 16, 2002 Report Share Posted January 16, 2002 I went ahead and made the request, too, because of the advice of others.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2002 Report Share Posted January 16, 2002 No, the pain was not related to childbirth. There must have been something else going on, like indigestion or something.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2002 Report Share Posted January 16, 2002 THis follows the simple reasoning that Workers' Comp. proposed and passed a law stating that a chiropracotr should not treat longer than 12 visits or 30 days whichever is shorter unless a competent physician agrees that more care is clinically indicated and prescribes accordingly. The reasoning then concludes that because so few competent physicians agree that more than 12/30 treatments are indicated that 12/30 is enough care for chiropractic to be effective. If chiropracitc care is not effective by that time, it follows that the case is not appropriate for chiropractic care.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2002 Report Share Posted January 16, 2002 As much as we dislike it it is not outside the scope of practice for a MD (with no training in it at all) to do spinal manipulation regardless of what their specialty is. Thus they are allowed to comment on spinal manipulation even if it was preformed by a DC and not a MD. They can even practice acupuncture with needles with no training at all from what I understand after calling their board. Their board does not recommend it but they can not stop them from preforming it until there are complaints form patients of poor outcomes. Thus it is the same for spinal manipulation from what I understood. If I am wrong or someone knows better please correct me. Please don't misunderstand I think it is very wrong for them to be commenting on something they really know nothing about.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2002 Report Share Posted January 17, 2002 Eckman is a neurologist here in Bend. I have a Work Comp patient who is going to see him this week, so we'll see. I remember another neuro here in Bend, now retired, say that Eckman was not particularly chiro. friendly, that was years ago. I have not had any other of my patients see him except for unrelated issues. Anybody else in Central Oregon have any input? Mike Riemhofer (unknown) > Has anyone heard of B.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2002 Report Share Posted January 17, 2002 I never really cared for Football until last year...... Now put on a good title Boxing Match and I'm right there yelling and carrying on.... When I was in Florida I went to a tanning Salon because it rained all week.... Couldn't come back to Jersey without a tan...Well this guy was sitting next to me and struck up a conversation about my neck problems... He told me he had a really bad neck also and was thinking about surgery.... A big built guy....Just figured he was into lifting weights.... When he went back to tan, the owner came over to me and asked if I knew who I was talking to. I said I didn't have a clue...... Well this guy was a pro wrestler named Vampire...(Gangrel) When he came out I asked him for a autograph for my Grandson and my girlfriends' son.... I figured he would be gone before I came out so I signed my name to the bottom of the note.... Well I was still there when he came out and of course my big mouth came out and said now if you were a Boxer I would have recognized you in a minute...... Well he and everyone else cracked up. I am not into wrestling as you can tell..... Well he told me I was the first person that never fell all over him.. He took my note and put it in his wallet and told me he now had my autograph, and would cherish it cause I was for real.... Again I told him if he were a boxer I would have hounded him for a autograph....... He went out in his vehice and came back with 8x10 pictures and wrote our names on each one.... One for me too.... Small world..... Oh!!! I also laid in his bed.... The tanning bed when he was done.... LOL....

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2002 Report Share Posted January 17, 2002 Eckman is better than he was about DCs. He can be pretty opinionated, but I've been able to work with him in the past. I just met a REALLY hot one from that office, her name is A. Kori. She is a good doc, took care of my mom, who just had a stroke. I don't know how she feels about Chiropractic, but I'm quite impressed with her. So are all the nurses at St. . K. Carpentier, D.C., D.A.B.C.O.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2002 Report Share Posted January 17, 2002 Terry My friend is into that Big Time. and my son is building a big mud truck in the garage now. He started right from the frame and is building it. He had a 350 Chevy bored out to a 406 and it will even have nitrous. It will be all painted up nice and then run in a 3' - 4' deep mud pit. I remember going to the stock car races on a dirt track with my folks in the 1950s. Dennis [ ] (unknown) > It's hard for me to get into football, I was never > into that.
