Epilepsy and Chiropractic

A case report discusses the results of chiropractic care on an 89-year-old male patient who had medically diagnosed epilepsy, as published in the Rapid City Journal.

Falmouth-based Dr. Bob Mulcahy, D.C., stated, “A 89-year-old male relayed the story of how, back in 1947 after suffering for 11 years with epilepsy, he was cured after visiting the Palmer Chiropractic Clinic in Davenport Iowa.”

The patient explained how he spent his early years suffering from debilitating epilepsy, causing him to regularly suffer grand mal seizures, the worst kind, which typically leaves a person unconscious with uncontrollable muscle contractions. In 1947 he went to the Palmer Chiropractic Clinic and in four weeks was free of seizures and has had none since, and has not had a headache in 40 years.

“The patient credits regular chiropractic visits for his good health and stated that chiropractic saved his life”, said Dr. Mulcahy.

“Though typically thought of as a procedure to help with back or neck problems, chiropractic care is becoming known for helping people like this patient who suffer from a variety of ailments.” said Dr. Mulcahy.
