Abstract/Notes

Narrative: The hypothesis that Chiropractic adjustments reduce the risk of stroke in long COVID victims gains initial plausibility from the existing evidence of the effect of Chiropractic adjustments on at least two modifiable risk factors for stroke. These factors are depressed pulmonary function and sedentary lifestyle. In addition to evidence that Chiropractic adjustments can ameliorate these risk factors generally, case reports suggest that depressed pulmonary function and sedentary lifestyle are ameliorated by Chiropractic adjustments in Long COVID victims specifically. Approaches to future research to confirm or not confirm the hypothesis are discussed. 

Indexing terms: Chiropractic - Hypothesis - Adjustment - Stroke risk - Long COVID.
