The report was presented at a stroke conference, sponsored by the American Heart Association.

Several specialists said they had treated patients injured during sessions with chiropractors. "Every neurologist in this room has seen two or three people who have suffered this after chiropractic manipulation," said Dr. William Powers of Washington University in St. Louis.
