			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you seen this from the Seattle Times?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object width="300" height="254" data="http://services.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f8/1509319618" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="name" value="flashObj" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /><param name="flashvars" value="videoId=8795732001&amp;playerId=1509319618&amp;viewerSecureGatewayURL=https://console.brightcove.com/services/amfgateway&amp;servicesURL=http://services.brightcove.com/services&amp;cdnURL=http://admin.brightcove.com&amp;domain=embed&amp;autoStart=false&amp;" /><param name="src" value="http://services.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f8/1509319618" /></object></p>
<p>At least the law states that PTs may not perform chiropractic adjustments, but is this another step towards phasing out any association between chiropractors and MDs?</p>
<p>The PT organizations also alluded to “&#8230;concerns raised of injury resulting from manipulation of the upper cervical spine. By contrast, within the physical therapy profession studies have been published on effective methods for addressing neck pain by manipulating the thoracic spine, where less risk exists.”</p>
<p>Sounds like they are doing all they can to alienate us and cow towing to the MDs.</p>
<p>Objective efficacy studies, like the one conducted by Dr. Kirk Eriksen, are more necessary now than ever before.</p>
