Description

In this episode, we highlight brand new research exploring the powerful impact of chiropractic adjustments—not just on pain relief, but on how patient expectations shape outcomes. We’ll break down a fascinating randomized clinical trial that investigated the effects of real versus sham spinal manipulations on changes in cortisol levels and the role of both positive and negative patient expectations in achieving short-term pain relief for individuals with neck pain.

Episode Notes:
