Christina Woodle is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Autoimmune Disorders.

Autoimmune Disorders

Supports

High-quality evidence directly supporting chiropractic treatment as an effective disease-modifying therapy for autoimmune disorders is essentially absent. A recent pragmatic randomized controlled trial found that 12 weeks of chiropractic spinal adjustments in adults with subclinical spinal pain modulated several stress and immune biomarkers (changes in IL-6, TNF-α, IFN-γ, cortisol, and BDNF) compared with sham care, suggesting short-term immune-pathway modulation but not clinical benefit in autoimmune disease populations. This is preliminary mechanistic evidence only and does not demonstrate improvement in autoimmune disease activity, flares, or long‑term outcomes in patients with diagnosed autoimmune conditions. Systematic review evidence on spinal manipulative therapy and immune outcomes concluded there is no clinical evidence to support claims that spinal manipulation prevents infectious diseases or improves disease-specific immune outcomes, although short-term changes in biomarkers were observed and their clinical relevance is unknown. Major autoimmune disease trials and meta-analyses (e.g., vitamin D and omega-3 supplementation for autoimmune disease risk reduction, mesenchymal stem cell transplantation for autoimmune rheumatic and bowel disease, biologic and targeted immunotherapies, CD40 ligand antagonists in Sjögren’s disease) focus on pharmacologic, nutritional, cellular, and vaccine-based interventions, not chiropractic manipulation, underscoring that current evidence-based strategies for autoimmune disease prevention and treatment are based on other modalities rather than chiropractic care.

Contradicts

The systematic review of spinal manipulative therapy and immune outcomes explicitly found no clinical evidence supporting claims that spinal manipulation is efficacious or effective in changing immune system outcomes relevant to disease-specific endpoints, and recommended that efficacy claims not be made until further robust trials exist. Consensus statements from chiropractic researchers similarly note that no valid clinical scientific evidence shows chiropractic care can meaningfully enhance immune function or reduce the risk of common infectious diseases, and emphasize that purported immune effects are untested hypotheses rather than established facts. Clinical commentary on rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune conditions highlights that there are no high‑quality studies demonstrating chiropractic is a safe or effective primary treatment for autoimmune joint disease; in fact, manipulation of inflamed joints may worsen symptoms and chiropractic does not affect the underlying autoimmunity. Current autoimmune research and guidelines emphasize disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, biologics, targeted synthetic agents, nutritional interventions, stem cell therapies, and appropriate vaccination, with no role for chiropractic manipulation as a disease-modifying therapy in standard care pathways, which contradicts any claim that chiropractic on its own can treat or control autoimmune disorders in an evidence-based way.

Mainstream view

The mainstream medical and scientific position is that autoimmune disorders are chronic conditions driven by dysregulated immune responses, primarily managed with evidence-based pharmacologic therapies (e.g., conventional synthetic disease-modifying drugs, biologics, targeted synthetic agents), lifestyle measures, appropriate vaccinations, and in select cases advanced interventions such as mesenchymal stem cell transplantation, vitamin D or omega-3 supplementation, or novel biologic agents targeting specific immune pathways. Major guidelines and trials do not recommend chiropractic spinal manipulation as a disease-modifying treatment for autoimmune disorders. Chiropractic may have a limited, adjunctive role for musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, or functional complaints in carefully selected patients, provided it is integrated with standard rheumatology or specialty care and avoids direct manipulation of acutely inflamed or unstable joints. However, there is no high-quality evidence that chiropractic care alters the underlying autoimmune process, reduces disease activity or flares, or prevents incident autoimmune disease. Mainstream practice therefore views chiropractic, at best, as a complementary symptom-management modality rather than a core or curative treatment for autoimmune disorders.

Christina Woodle is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Autism Spectrum.

Autism Spectrum

Supports

There is no high-quality evidence such as large randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, or major clinical guidelines showing that chiropractic treatment is effective for core symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Existing literature consists mainly of case reports, small case series, and one small randomized clinical trial comparing upper cervical versus full spine chiropractic techniques in autistic children, with subjective parent-reported improvements in behavior and Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist scores. These studies suggest possible symptomatic improvements but are underpowered, lack rigorous controls, and do not establish causality or generalizable efficacy. Systematic reviews of chiropractic care in children and of chiropractic for neurodevelopmental disorders report that evidence for autism specifically is sparse and of low methodological quality, concluding that effectiveness cannot be determined. A 2011 systematic review cited in a 2024 review of chiropractic care in children explicitly states that there is insufficient research to determine effectiveness of chiropractic care for treatment of autism in children. Overall, current evidence provides only weak, low-quality support for any benefit, and no robust support for chiropractic as a treatment for ASD itself.

Contradicts

Systematic reviews of spinal manipulative therapy and chiropractic in pediatric conditions consistently find that health claims for pediatric chiropractic care, including for neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism, are supported only by low-level evidence and that there is insufficient research to determine effectiveness. High-quality pediatric chiropractic reviews emphasize lack of substantive shift in the evidence base and caution against strong therapeutic claims. Broader evidence-based reviews of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) for autism conclude that evidence for interventions like chiropractic is inconclusive and insufficient to recommend them as effective treatments for ASD. Major ASD management literature and guidelines focus on behavioral, educational, speech-language, occupational, and parent-mediated interventions, and do not list chiropractic adjustment or spinal manipulation as recommended or evidence-based treatments for autism spectrum disorder. The absence of chiropractic from guideline-driven care for neurodevelopmental disorders, combined with explicit findings of insufficient and low-quality evidence, contradicts any strong claim that chiropractic treatment is an established or proven therapy for ASD.

Mainstream view

Mainstream medical and scientific consensus is that autism spectrum disorder is a neurodevelopmental condition best managed with evidence-based behavioral, educational, speech-language, occupational, and parent-mediated interventions, sometimes supplemented by medications for co-occurring conditions such as irritability, anxiety, or ADHD. Chiropractic treatment is not recognized as an evidence-based therapy for ASD in major guidelines or consensus statements, and it is generally not recommended as a primary or core treatment for autism. Complementary approaches, including chiropractic, may be used by some families, but current evidence is considered insufficient, low quality, and not adequate to support claims of efficacy for core ASD symptoms. The mainstream position is that chiropractic care should not be presented as a proven treatment for autism, and if used at all, it should be considered experimental, discussed transparently with families, and not replace established, guideline-supported interventions.

Christina Woodle is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Fibromyalgia Disorder.

Fibromyalgia Disorder

Supports

There is limited randomized trial evidence suggesting that spinal manipulation, delivered in a chiropractic-like manner and added to usual pharmacologic care, can improve pain and some fibromyalgia severity and functional scores versus sham or no manipulation in the short to medium term. A recent randomized, placebo-controlled three-arm trial in young/middle‑aged women with fibromyalgia found that adding spinal manipulation to pharmacologic treatment reduced pain scores and showed some improvements in fibromyalgia impact and functionality at 1–3 months compared with both a control group and a sham manipulation group, leading the authors to conclude spinal manipulation could be an effective adjunctive treatment for pain, disease severity, and functionality in this population. Earlier small randomized work suggested that chiropractic management (spinal manipulation plus soft‑tissue therapy and stretching) improved cervical and lumbar range of motion, straight leg raise, and reported pain levels over a short 4‑week period in fibromyalgia patients, although this was a preliminary, small trial and the authors emphasized results were only clinically important within their sample. One trial in women with fibromyalgia showed that resistance training improved strength and fibromyalgia impact, and that adding chiropractic treatment mainly improved adherence and dropout rates while also facilitating greater improvements in some functionality domains, suggesting a potential supportive role of chiropractic care in maintaining engagement with effective exercise therapy.

Contradicts

Multiple systematic reviews and evidence overviews have assessed chiropractic spinal manipulation and other manual therapies for fibromyalgia and consistently judged the evidence to be weak, low quality, or inconclusive. A systematic review of randomized clinical trials on chiropractic care for fibromyalgia identified only three small, methodologically poor trials and concluded that there was no evidence to suggest chiropractic care is effective for fibromyalgia and that current trial evidence is insufficient to support chiropractic as an effective treatment. A broader evidence report on manual therapies, which included fibromyalgia, found inconclusive evidence in an unclear direction for spinal manipulation in fibromyalgia and summarized the existing systematic reviews as showing weak evidence of efficacy for chiropractic/manual/massage therapy and stating that trial evidence is insufficient to conclude that chiropractic is effective. An overview of systematic reviews on spinal manipulation for pain reported that, for fibromyalgia, the best available data fail to demonstrate that chiropractic spinal manipulation is an effective intervention for pain, again highlighting poor quality and low quantity of primary data. A more recent systematic review focused on manual therapy for fibromyalgia concluded that, based on very low to moderate quality evidence, current data are inconclusive and insufficient to recommend manual therapy (including spinal and other manipulative techniques) for fibromyalgia, with only general osteopathic treatment achieving clinically relevant pain improvement compared with control in one study. Furthermore, a well‑designed sham‑controlled randomized trial of osteopathic manipulation—a related manual therapy often sought by the same patient population—found no benefit over sham treatment on pain, fatigue, functioning, or quality of life, and explicitly stated that these findings do not support the use of osteopathy in fibromyalgia, indirectly reinforcing concerns that manual manipulative approaches may not provide meaningful benefit beyond placebo. Overall, the bulk of higher‑level evidence indicates that any positive findings from individual chiropractic or spinal manipulation trials are not robust enough to overturn the prevailing view of limited or uncertain efficacy in fibromyalgia.

Mainstream view

Mainstream medical and scientific opinion, as reflected in major evidence syntheses and clinical guidance, is that fibromyalgia management should focus on multimodal approaches with the strongest evidence base, including graded aerobic and resistance exercise, cognitive‑behavioral and other psychological therapies, patient education, and selected pharmacologic options such as certain antidepressants and anticonvulsants, rather than relying on chiropractic or spinal manipulation as primary treatment. Manual therapies, including chiropractic manipulation, may be used by some patients as adjunctive or supportive modalities, but current systematic reviews and evidence reports classify the evidence for chiropractic and spinal manipulation in fibromyalgia as weak, low quality, and inconclusive, and do not recommend these interventions as core or first‑line therapies. Guidelines and expert reviews typically emphasize that while individual patients might report short‑term symptomatic relief from manipulative or manual therapies, such approaches should be considered optional add‑ons, used cautiously, and not promoted as proven disease‑modifying treatments for fibromyalgia given the lack of consistent, high‑quality randomized trial data demonstrating durable benefit over credible sham or active comparators.

Christina Woodle is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Menopause.

Menopause

Supports

High-quality evidence specifically supporting chiropractic treatment as an effective therapy for menopause or menopausal symptoms is essentially absent. A focused review of chiropractic intervention for postmenopausal climacteric symptoms and insomnia concluded that there is no evidence for the effectiveness of chiropractic care for menopausal symptoms and insomnia, and that existing data are limited and of poor quality. Major menopause position statements summarizing randomized and observational data on nonhormonal therapies state that there have been no clinical trials showing benefit of chiropractic interventions for vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes, night sweats) and do not recommend chiropractic for these indications. No RCTs or meta-analyses demonstrate that spinal manipulation or standard chiropractic protocols reliably improve vasomotor symptoms, urogenital symptoms, or other core menopausal complaints beyond placebo. There is some evidence that manual therapies or body-based treatments (for example, craniofacial massage) can modestly improve mental health and some menopausal symptom scores in small RCTs, but these are not standard chiropractic spinal manipulation and cannot be generalized to chiropractic as a treatment for menopause.

Contradicts

A dedicated review of chiropractic intervention for postmenopausal climacteric symptoms and insomnia identified only three small studies and concluded that there is no evidence supporting chiropractic as an effective complementary therapy for menopausal symptoms or insomnia; large epidemiologic surveys also showed no benefit. Evidence-based menopause reviews and position statements report that complementary therapies such as chiropractic manipulation do not perform better than placebo for menopausal symptoms when tested in quality blinded randomized trials, and they explicitly state that there are no supporting quality data for chiropractic manipulation in the treatment of menopause. A recent North American menopause guideline on nonhormone therapies notes that there are no clinical trials of chiropractic interventions for vasomotor symptoms and finds no association between chiropractic use and improvement in hot flashes in survey data, concluding that chiropractic interventions are not recommended for vasomotor symptom management. Overall, the available literature and guideline assessments characterize the evidence for chiropractic in menopause as lacking, methodologically weak, and not demonstrating clinically meaningful benefit over placebo. The listed guideline papers deal with hypertension, nutrition support, headache, and other topics, and illustrate that guideline-based management of chronic conditions relies on treatments backed by robust RCTs and systematic reviews, which is not the case for chiropractic in menopause.

Mainstream view

The mainstream medical and scientific position is that chiropractic care is not an evidence-based treatment for menopause itself or for key menopausal symptoms such as vasomotor symptoms, urogenital atrophy, or overall climacteric syndrome. Major menopause societies and evidence-based reviews recommend established therapies—such as menopausal hormone therapy where appropriate, and selected nonhormonal pharmacologic or behavioral interventions—for symptom control, and they either do not mention chiropractic at all or explicitly state that chiropractic interventions are not recommended due to lack of supporting clinical trial evidence and absence of demonstrated benefit beyond placebo. Chiropractic treatment may have a role for clearly musculoskeletal complaints (for example, low back pain) in peri- or postmenopausal women, but this is distinct from treating menopause or its systemic symptoms. Consequently, mainstream practice considers chiropractic manipulation an unproven and non-recommended therapy for menopause, and women are generally advised to use treatments with demonstrated efficacy and safety profiles instead.

Christina Woodle is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Quit Smoking.

Quit Smoking

Supports

There is very limited preliminary evidence that chiropractors can participate in delivering standard, guideline‑concordant smoking cessation counseling and referral, and that this may be feasible and acceptable to patients. A feasibility randomized clinical trial found that adding chiropractic spinal manipulation to standard tobacco cessation counseling in a chiropractic setting was logistically possible and suggested a potential added benefit on short‑term smoking reduction and 7‑day abstinence, though the sample size was extremely small and the primary aim was feasibility rather than efficacy. Other pilot and implementation studies show that chiropractors can be trained to identify tobacco users, advise them to quit, and refer them to established cessation services, integrating into broader evidence‑based tobacco treatment systems. Major smoking‑cessation guidelines and high‑quality trials, however, support behavioral counseling plus pharmacotherapy (nicotine replacement therapy, varenicline, bupropion, cytisinicline) as effective strategies, not chiropractic manipulation per se.

Contradicts

There are no large, high‑quality randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, or major clinical guidelines demonstrating that chiropractic manipulation or chiropractic treatment alone is an effective method to help people quit smoking. Existing chiropractic trials for smoking cessation are small pilot or feasibility studies with limited power, high risk of bias, and often no long‑term follow‑up; they cannot establish efficacy. Broader reviews of alternative therapies for smoking cessation report that modalities outside the standard pharmacologic and behavioral approaches (e.g., acupuncture, hypnosis, homeopathy) have not demonstrated reliable efficacy, and chiropractic is not recommended as an evidence‑based cessation method in these analyses. Major evidence‑based guidelines for tobacco treatment focus on proven pharmacotherapies and structured behavioral support and do not list chiropractic treatment as a recommended or standard approach, indicating that the evidence for chiropractic as a primary quitting aid is weak or absent.

Mainstream view

Mainstream medical and public health guidance is that effective smoking cessation relies on a combination of behavioral support (counseling, digital or phone programs) and proven pharmacologic agents such as nicotine replacement therapy, varenicline, bupropion, or cytisinicline, delivered according to established guidelines. Chiropractic clinicians may appropriately participate in tobacco control by screening for tobacco use, advising patients to quit, and referring or linking them to these evidence‑based treatments, but chiropractic spinal manipulation or other chiropractic modalities are not considered established or recommended primary treatments for smoking cessation. At present, chiropractic care is viewed, at best, as a possible adjunct context in which standard cessation counseling might be delivered, not as an independently validated method for quitting smoking.

Christina Woodle is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Neuropathy.

Neuropathy

Supports

There is very limited high-quality evidence directly assessing chiropractic treatment for peripheral neuropathy. Existing controlled trials and systematic reviews on chiropractic spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) focus mainly on spine pain (low back pain, neck pain, migraine), not on primary peripheral neuropathies. A mechanistic rat and human study suggests that spinal manipulative therapy can reduce peripheral neuropathic leg pain and modulate pain pathways, but this is preclinical/early-stage and not definitive clinical evidence for neuropathy treatment in humans. Some evidence exists for non-pharmacologic, physical treatment approaches (such as neural mobilisation and neuromuscular training) improving nerve conduction and neuropathic symptoms in specific contexts, but these are not chiropractic SMT per se and often come from physiotherapy or exercise-based interventions, not chiropractic care. Overall, there is no major guideline or high-quality systematic review that clearly supports chiropractic manipulation as an evidence-based primary treatment for peripheral neuropathy.

Contradicts

Major clinical practice guidelines for neuropathic pain and peripheral neuropathy do not list chiropractic spinal manipulation as a standard, recommended treatment; they instead emphasize pharmacologic therapies, disease-specific management (e.g., glycemic control in diabetes), physical therapy, and in some cases neuromodulation or structured exercise programs. Where high-quality evidence exists for neuropathy (e.g., diabetic peripheral neuropathy, chemotherapy-induced neuropathy), it focuses on medications, neuromuscular training, compression or cryotherapy, spinal cord stimulation, acupuncture, and other modalities, not chiropractic SMT. Systematic reviews of SMT indicate that for spine pain the efficacy of SMT versus sham or placebo remains uncertain and that SMT is not clearly superior to other conventional interventions, which indirectly argues against strong claims that SMT can reliably treat neuropathic conditions. Evidence for neural mobilisation and similar manual therapies in neuropathic pain is graded as low to moderate quality and is largely limited to short-term improvements in specific measures, suggesting that manual techniques may have some effect but the data are weak and not specific to chiropractic practice. Overall, the evidence base for chiropractic treatment of neuropathy is sparse, low-quality, and indirect, and strong claims of efficacy are not supported by randomized trials or major guidelines.

Mainstream view

The mainstream medical view is that peripheral neuropathy should be managed according to its cause (e.g., diabetes, chemotherapy, autoimmune disease, compression neuropathies) using established evidence-based strategies: risk factor control, pharmacologic agents for neuropathic pain, physical therapy, neuromuscular or sensorimotor training, and selected non-pharmacologic modalities that have randomized trial support. Chiropractic spinal manipulation is sometimes used as an adjunct for musculoskeletal pain (especially back and neck pain), but it is not regarded as an established or guideline-recommended primary treatment for peripheral neuropathy. Use of chiropractic care for neuropathy is therefore considered experimental or complementary, with insufficient high-quality evidence to endorse it as a standard therapy. Patients with neuropathy are typically advised to be evaluated by clinicians experienced in neurology, endocrinology, oncology, or pain medicine, and to use chiropractic or other manual therapies only, if at all, as adjuncts within a broader, medically supervised treatment plan.

Christina Woodle is not licensed or approved by Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (Chiropractic) to diagnose, treat, or cure Seasonal Allergies.

Seasonal Allergies

Supports

High-quality evidence specifically supporting chiropractic treatment for seasonal allergies (allergic rhinitis) is essentially absent. A key narrative review on chiropractic care in asthma and allergy reports that no primary clinical trials on spinal manipulation and allergy were found and concludes that there is currently no evidence to support the use of chiropractic spinal manipulation therapy as a primary treatment for asthma or allergy. Animal work suggests possible immunologic effects of chiropractic-like interventions: a rat model of allergic airway inflammation found that chiropractic therapy modulated gut microbiota and attenuated Th2 responses and allergic airway inflammation, leading the authors to suggest it may be a useful adjunct therapy for children with asthma and other allergic diseases. However, this is preclinical evidence, not human clinical data, and it concerns asthma rather than seasonal allergic rhinitis. Major allergic rhinitis guidelines comprehensively review effective treatments such as intranasal corticosteroids, second-generation oral antihistamines, intranasal antihistamines, saline irrigation, and allergen immunotherapy, but do not list chiropractic or spinal manipulation as recommended or optional therapies. This omission, in the context of broad guideline searches for nonpharmacologic therapies, indirectly indicates a lack of supportive high-quality evidence for chiropractic treatment of seasonal allergies.

Contradicts

The most directly relevant peer-reviewed evidence explicitly states that there is currently no evidence to support the use of chiropractic spinal manipulation therapy as a primary treatment for asthma or allergy, and that existing claims are mainly anecdotal or based on uncontrolled case studies. A systematic review of randomized clinical trials of spinal manipulation for asthma likewise found no clinically important effects on objective lung function outcomes, undermining claims that spinal manipulation effectively treats allergic or atopic respiratory conditions. Major allergic rhinitis clinical practice guidelines, including international consensus statements and specialty society guidelines, provide detailed recommendations for pharmacologic and selected nonpharmacologic treatments but do not recommend chiropractic care; instead, they focus on intranasal corticosteroids, second-generation antihistamines, intranasal antihistamines, saline irrigation, leukotriene modifiers (with caveats), and allergen immunotherapy. One guideline explicitly considers nonpharmacologic options such as acupuncture and notes that acupuncture may be offered to interested patients, yet still makes no recommendation for chiropractic or spinal manipulation, suggesting that available evidence for such approaches is weak or absent. Taken together, current clinical trials, systematic reviews, and guidelines contradict strong claims that chiropractic treatment is an effective or evidence-based therapy for seasonal allergies, either as primary treatment or as a standard adjunct.

Mainstream view

The mainstream medical and scientific position is that seasonal allergies (allergic rhinitis) should be managed with evidence-based therapies such as allergen avoidance, intranasal corticosteroids, second-generation oral antihistamines, intranasal antihistamines, saline irrigation, and allergen immunotherapy when indicated. These approaches are consistently endorsed in major guidelines and consensus statements from otolaryngology, allergy, and immunology societies and are supported by multiple randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews. Nonpharmacologic options like acupuncture may be offered to interested patients because limited evidence suggests symptom benefit and harms appear minimal, but they are considered adjuncts rather than replacements for core pharmacologic and immunotherapy-based treatment. Chiropractic care and spinal manipulation are not recognized in mainstream allergic rhinitis guidelines as effective treatments, and available reviews state there is currently no evidence to support spinal manipulation as a primary treatment for allergy. Chiropractic may have a role in musculoskeletal conditions such as low back pain, headache, or some neurological or functional outcomes in other contexts, but this does not extend to treating seasonal allergic rhinitis based on present evidence.
