Bottom line

Funnel-first framing that runs on persuasion, light on published evidence.

  • Of 8 health claims, 8 run counter to or conflict with the published evidence.
  • Primary persuasion tactic: Borrowing 'Dr.' Title for Out-of-Scope Claims.
  • Stated credentials look inflated relative to the advice given.
  • Profits from the products and labs they recommend, with no clear disclosure.
  • Gives advice beyond what their license covers.
Dr. Trust Me Bro says

Oh, look at Jaban Moore, the 'Stress-Response Shaman' who's gonna 'harmonize' your nervous system with some fancy tunes and 'support' your Lyme recovery! He's treating the sickest kids with PANS/PANDAS and mold illness with 'simple, natural interventions' because, you know, stress is the real villain here. Book a call with his team to 'uncover the root cause'—because why would you need an actual doctor when you can just listen to music and pay for a consultation? Truly, the pinnacle of functional medicine grift.

Direct answer

Jaban M Moore is licensed in Missouri as a chiropractor (DC), not as an MD or DO, and Missouri's chiropractic scope statute (RSMo § 331.010) limits that license to musculoskeletal care, not the diagnosis or treatment of systemic disease. Even so, they advertise diagnosing or treating Lyme disease, mold illness, MCAS, PANS/PANDAS, and infection-induced autoimmune encephalitis, conditions that belong with infectious-disease physicians, rheumatologists, and allergy and immunology specialists. Those same pages route patients toward paid programs that Jaban M Moore profits from.

many people with chronic illnesses, including Lyme disease, mold illness, MCAS, and PANS/PANDAS, can struggle to heal when their bodies remain stuck in protective stress responses

Supports
The specific phrase “stuck in protective stress responses” is not a standard biomedical outcome measure, but the broader idea that chronic illness can be associated with persistent stress-system activation and symptom persistence is biologically plausible. Stress physiology can affect immune, endocrine, and autonomic function, which may influence symptom burden and recovery in some conditions; however, the provided index papers do not directly study Lyme disease, mold illness, MCAS, or PANS/PANDAS, so they do not directly support the claim as stated. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
Contradicts
The claim is too broad and not well supported by high-quality evidence for the named conditions. [5] None of the provided index papers are disease-specific evidence for Lyme disease, mold illness, MCAS, or PANS/PANDAS, and several are unrelated guideline or methodology papers rather than trials or reviews of stress-state mechanisms. [1][3][6] For these conditions, mainstream evidence focuses on specific infectious, immunologic, or inflammatory mechanisms and established diagnostic/treatment criteria rather than a validated “protective stress response” model. In addition, major evidence-based guidelines in the index set address other disorders and do not substantiate this claim . [2]
Mainstream view
Mainstream medicine recognizes that chronic illness can interact with stress, autonomic arousal, sleep, mood, and immune regulation, and these factors can affect how patients feel and function. But the specific claim that many people with Lyme disease, mold illness, MCAS, and PANS/PANDAS “struggle to heal when their bodies remain stuck in protective stress responses” is not an established medical consensus statement and is not supported by strong condition-specific evidence. [4][5] For these illnesses, the standard view is that diagnosis and treatment should be based on validated criteria and disease-specific evidence, while stress management may be adjunctive rather than explanatory or curative.

Jaban M Moore is not licensed or approved by Missouri State Board of Chiropractic Examiners to diagnose, treat, or cure infection-induced autoimmune encephalitis.

infection-induced autoimmune encephalitis

Supports
None of the indexed clinical trials relate to chiropractic treatment or autoimmune encephalitis; they cover topics such as antifungal resistance in infants, chemotherapy pharmacokinetics, metformin for autophagy, swaddle bathing, and other unrelated interventions. [10][12] Peer‑reviewed reviews and consensus guidelines on autoimmune encephalitis consistently support treatment with immunotherapy (high‑dose corticosteroids, intravenous immunoglobulin, plasma exchange) and, in refractory cases, B‑cell depleting agents or other immunosuppressants, not spinal manipulation or chiropractic techniques. [9] These sources describe autoimmune encephalitis as an antibody‑mediated inflammatory brain disease requiring prompt immunomodulatory and sometimes oncologic therapy, with no mention of chiropractic as a therapeutic modality. Therefore, there is no high‑quality evidence (RCTs, systematic reviews, major guidelines) supporting chiropractor treatment as an effective therapy for infection‑induced autoimmune encephalitis.
Contradicts
The mainstream evidence base for autoimmune encephalitis, including international and national consensus guidelines, emphasizes early recognition, exclusion of infection, and rapid initiation of immunotherapy such as high‑dose intravenous corticosteroids, IVIG, and plasma exchange as first‑line treatment, followed by agents like rituximab or cyclophosphamide if the disease is refractory. [10][12] These guidelines and reviews describe autoimmune encephalitis as a serious, potentially life‑threatening condition that requires hospital‑based neurological and critical care management and, when infection is present, appropriate antimicrobial therapy; they do not consider or recommend chiropractic manipulation or other chiropractic interventions as treatment. Case reports of infection‑related or COVID‑19‑associated autoimmune encephalitis further illustrate that patients who improve do so after targeted immunotherapy and, when needed, treatment of the underlying infection or tumor, again with no role for chiropractic care documented. [9] The absence of any mention of chiropractic in these detailed treatment frameworks, combined with the clear recommendation for potent immunomodulatory drugs and intensive monitoring, contradicts the idea that chiropractor treatment is an effective or appropriate primary therapy for infection‑induced autoimmune encephalitis.
Mainstream view
The mainstream medical position is that autoimmune encephalitis, including forms triggered or unmasked by infection, is a rare but severe antibody‑mediated inflammatory brain disorder that must be managed with evidence‑based immunotherapy and, when indicated, tumor resection or anti‑infective treatment under specialist neurologic care. [9][12] Standard first‑line treatment consists of high‑dose intravenous corticosteroids plus either intravenous immunoglobulin or plasma exchange, with escalation to second‑line immunosuppressants (such as rituximab or cyclophosphamide) if response is inadequate. Major guidelines stress the need to rule out active infection, provide supportive intensive care, and treat any underlying neoplasm; chiropractic manipulation is not part of diagnostic evaluation or treatment algorithms and is not recognized as an effective intervention for autoimmune encephalitis. [10] At most, chiropractors may have a role in general musculoskeletal care or rehabilitation in stable patients, but they are not considered appropriate providers for treating the encephalitis itself, particularly when it is infection‑induced and requires urgent immunologic and antimicrobial management.

music, rhythm, and frequency can help regulate the nervous system, reduce stress, and support chronic illness recovery

Supports
There is substantial evidence that structured music therapy and music-listening interventions can reduce stress and anxiety and modulate autonomic nervous system activity, which is one key component of nervous system regulation. [8][14] Meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials show that music therapy produces small-to-medium reductions in anxiety compared with control conditions, including in clinical and non-clinical populations, supporting the stress-reduction aspect of the claim. [2][15][16][17] Additional randomized trials in students demonstrate reductions in both self-reported stress and physiological stress markers (such as cortisol and heart rate) after group music therapy sessions, consistent with short-term nervous system regulation and stress relief. [13] A systematic review of 29 studies on music and heart rate variability reports that most studies find music increases parasympathetic activity and heart rate variability, indicating beneficial modulation of cardiac autonomic function, although risk of bias is high. Other reviews in people living with dementia and chronic health conditions find that music interventions can improve psychological wellbeing, depressive symptoms, and sometimes autonomic markers, suggesting supportive roles in coping with chronic illness, mood, and stress, even if they are adjunctive rather than curative. Overall, high-quality evidence supports a role for music-based interventions in reducing stress and anxiety and in influencing autonomic nervous system parameters, which aligns with parts of the influencer’s claim about nervous system regulation and stress reduction. [1][5]
Contradicts
The claim is broad and implies that music, rhythm, and frequency can reliably regulate the nervous system and support recovery from chronic illness in a general sense, which is not supported by current evidence. Existing systematic reviews emphasize that while music can modulate autonomic markers (e. [14] g. , heart rate variability, blood pressure, stress hormones), the quality of evidence is often low to moderate, with small sample sizes, heterogeneous interventions, and high risk of bias, so effects are not consistent or robust enough to claim predictable nervous system regulation across conditions. [5][13] The evidence base for music directly driving recovery from chronic illnesses (such as inflammatory, cardiovascular, or autoimmune diseases) is weak: available reviews mostly show improvements in mood, anxiety, pain, and quality of life rather than disease remission, reduced inflammatory activity, or reversal of underlying pathology, and specifically note that there is not enough evidence that music improves many disease-specific outcomes. [15][16] Major clinical guidelines for chronic somatic diseases (e. [2] g. , hypertension management, clinical nutrition in inflammatory bowel disease, parenteral nutrition, transfusion therapy) focus on pharmacologic, nutritional, and procedural interventions and do not include music or sound-based therapies as core disease-modifying treatments, reflecting the absence of strong evidence that music directly alters the course of these conditions. [1][3][4][8][17]
Mainstream view
Mainstream medicine and neuroscience recognize music therapy as a credible adjunctive treatment for stress, anxiety, mood disorders, some pain conditions, and aspects of psychological wellbeing, with modest but clinically meaningful benefits documented in randomized trials and systematic reviews. [8][15][17] The prevailing view is that music can influence autonomic nervous system activity and stress-related physiology (heart rate variability, cortisol, blood pressure) in the short term, contributing to stress regulation and emotional coping, but that these effects are variable, context-dependent, and not yet characterized as reliable, long-term “nervous system regulation” in the broad sense often promoted by influencers. [13][14][16] For chronic illnesses, mainstream practice regards music therapy as supportive or palliative—helping patients cope with symptoms, anxiety, depression, and quality of life—rather than as a primary disease-modifying therapy capable of driving recovery or remission, and this is reflected in the absence of music-based interventions from major treatment guidelines for chronic somatic diseases such as hypertension, inflammatory bowel disease, and cardiovascular conditions.

Jaban M Moore is not licensed or approved by Missouri State Board of Chiropractic Examiners to diagnose, treat, or cure tick-borne co-infections.

tick-borne co-infections

Supports
High-quality evidence and guidelines for tick-borne infections (including Lyme disease and common co-infections such as Babesia, Anaplasma, Ehrlichia) focus on antimicrobial therapy, not chiropractic treatment. The 2020 IDSA/AAN/ACR Lyme disease guideline, reaffirmed in 2023, provides evidence-based recommendations for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of Lyme disease and Lyme complicated by coinfection with other tick-borne pathogens; recommended therapies are antibiotics and, in selected cases, antiparasitic agents, with no role for chiropractic care in eradicating infection or treating organ manifestations.[20][12][14] CDC clinical care recommendations for Lyme disease similarly specify antibiotic regimens for the major clinical manifestations and note that these regimens are aligned with the IDSA/AAN/ACR guidelines, again without mention of chiropractic or spinal manipulation as disease-directed therapy.[23][9] Randomized trials and clinical studies in Lyme and post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome have evaluated pharmacologic agents (e.g., longer-term antibiotic therapy, disulfiram pilot study) and some non-pharmacologic modalities such as Kundalini yoga for symptom burden, but do not include chiropractic manipulation as a tested intervention for tick-borne infections or their co-infections.[16][4][6] Overall, current high-quality evidence supports antibiotic-based treatment and, in some cases, carefully studied adjuncts; it does not specifically support chiropractor-directed treatment as a modality for tick-borne co-infections beyond generic musculoskeletal symptom relief.
Contradicts
Major evidence-based guidelines and public health recommendations contradict the notion that chiropractic treatment is an effective or primary therapy for tick-borne co-infections. The IDSA/AAN/ACR guideline explicitly addresses Lyme disease with co-infection by other tick-borne pathogens and recommends defined antimicrobial regimens; it does not endorse manual therapies, spinal manipulation, or chiropractic approaches for clearing infections or managing neurologic, cardiac, rheumatologic, or systemic manifestations.[20][12][14] CDC clinical care guidance for Lyme disease similarly confines treatment recommendations to antibiotics, with durations and drug choices based on clinical presentation, and does not consider chiropractic care as disease-modifying therapy.[23][9] Trials of longer-term antibiotic treatment for persistent symptoms attributed to Lyme disease have not demonstrated benefit of prolonged antibiotics over shorter courses, which underscores that even among biomedical interventions, only certain approaches are supported—there is no parallel evidence base for chiropractic manipulation in this context.[16] The pilot disulfiram study for individuals with persistent symptoms after Lyme disease illustrates the experimental nature of alternative pharmacologic strategies and emphasizes safety and tolerability; again, non-pharmacologic adjuncts like chiropractic are not part of these controlled investigations.[4] Where non-antibiotic modalities have been studied, such as Kundalini yoga for post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome, they are framed as adjuncts for symptom burden and cognition, not as treatments for underlying infection or co-infections.[6] In sum, available high-quality evidence and guidelines make clear that tick-borne infections and co-infections are managed with antimicrobials and supportive care; claims that chiropractor treatment can address the infections themselves or substitute for evidence-based antimicrobial therapy are not supported and conflict with mainstream recommendations.
Mainstream view
The mainstream medical and scientific position is that tick-borne infections and their co-infections (e.g., Lyme borreliosis, babesiosis, anaplasmosis) are infectious diseases caused by specific pathogens transmitted by ticks and require evidence-based antimicrobial therapy. Authoritative guidelines from IDSA, AAN, and ACR specify diagnostic algorithms (including appropriate serologic testing) and recommend antibiotic or antiparasitic regimens tailored to the clinical manifestations and presence of co-infections; chiropractic treatment is not considered an antimicrobial or first-line medical therapy in these documents.[20][12][14][9] Public health agencies such as CDC similarly emphasize prevention (tick-avoidance measures, emerging vaccines), prompt recognition of disease, and appropriate antibiotic treatment; they do not list chiropractic care as a treatment for the infections themselves.[23] Chiropractic and other manual therapies may be used in general practice for musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, or functional complaints, including in people who also happen to have or have had Lyme disease, but this is understood as nonspecific symptomatic care rather than pathogen-targeted treatment. Mainstream clinicians therefore view chiropractic care, at most, as an optional adjunct for musculoskeletal symptom management, not as a therapy for tick-borne co-infections or a substitute for indicated antimicrobials.

The statute permits meridian therapy, acupressure, and acupuncture only with board-required certification, and does not affirmatively authorize chiropractors to diagnose or treat systemic diseases such as Lyme disease, mold illness, MCAS, PANS/PANDAS, autoimmune encephalitis, or tick-borne coinfections.

What this license permits

  • Spinal adjustment and manipulation
  • Musculoskeletal evaluation and treatment
  • Soft-tissue and rehabilitative care
  • Headache care within musculoskeletal scope

10 of 10 advertised activities fall outside permitted scope.

AdvertisedVerdict
many people with chronic illnesses, including Lyme disease, mold illness, MCAS, and PANS/PANDAS, can struggle to heal when their bodies remain stuck in protective stress responses
This general explanation links multiple systemic diseases to a physiological healing mechanism and is not an affirmatively authorized chiropractic examination, diagnosis, adjustment, manipulation, or treatment.
Outside scope
Listed service Lyme disease
Diagnosing Lyme disease is diagnosis of a systemic infectious disease rather than diagnosis within the statutorily defined chiropractic practice.
Outside scope
Listed service mold illness
Diagnosing a systemic condition attributed to mold exposure is not affirmatively authorized as chiropractic diagnosis and falls within the excluded practice of medicine.
Outside scope
Listed service MCAS
Diagnosing mast-cell activation syndrome is diagnosis of a systemic medical disorder and is not affirmatively authorized by Missouri's chiropractic-scope definition.
Outside scope
Listed service PANS/PANDAS
Diagnosing PANS or PANDAS involves systemic neuropsychiatric or infectious disease assessment outside the chiropractic activities affirmatively authorized by § 331.010.
Outside scope
Listed service infection-induced autoimmune encephalitis
Diagnosing infection-induced autoimmune encephalitis is diagnosis of a serious systemic neurologic and autoimmune disease, not an authorized chiropractic diagnosis.
Outside scope
Treatment of Lyme disease, mold illness, MCAS, and PANS/PANDAS with 'simple, natural interventions'
Treating these named systemic diseases, even with non-drug interventions, is not affirmatively authorized as chiropractic treatment and would constitute treatment outside the defined chiropractic practice.
Outside scope
music, rhythm, and frequency can help regulate the nervous system, reduce stress, and support chronic illness recovery
When advertised as supporting recovery from chronic illness, this is a systemic therapeutic health claim not affirmatively authorized by Missouri's chiropractic scope definition.
Outside scope
Listed service tick-borne co-infections
Diagnosing tick-borne coinfections is diagnosis of systemic infectious diseases and is outside the chiropractic scope affirmatively established by § 331.010.
Outside scope
Music, rhythm, and frequency as treatment for chronic illness recovery
Using music, rhythm, or frequency as treatment for recovery from chronic illness is not an affirmatively authorized chiropractic treatment under Missouri law.

Hi, We are independent journalists that are focused on uncovering grift and manipulation perpetrated by medical practitioners that are operating outside their licensed scope. A reader of Dr. Trust Me Bro thought you might know something firsthand about Jaban M Moore and the public claims we documented here: https://drtrustmebro.com/influencer/LHGCVS_CZpjf-As5HKrmZ#report We want to hear from insiders: employees, former employees, accountants, billing staff, sales reps, IT staff, anyone who knows. Worth telling us about Jaban M Moore: - Care plans structured to funnel sales to take advantage of someone's grandma - Insight into the real reason they refuse insurance, Medicaid, or Medicare, not the version they give the public - Upselling unnecessary tests and panels - Kickbacks for lab, vendor, or other referrals - Discussions or policy, written or otherwise, that steers patients away from physicians properly licensed for the care Jaban M Moore is treating out of scope - Medicaid or Medicare overbilling - Any scheme to squeeze a few more dollars out of grandma We are especially interested in how Jaban M Moore handled payment and coverage: were people told to swipe an FSA or HSA card at checkout, handed a superbill or receipt to submit themselves, or told the service is not covered by insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid? Here is why that matters: https://drtrustmebro.com/patterns/fsa-hsa-loophole You can also simply hit reply to this email and start the conversation here or you can reach the confidential tip line here, on the record or anonymously: https://drtrustmebro.com/whistleblower You do not have to give your name. Add whatever context, dates, or links you are comfortable sharing, and leave out anything you are not. There is no pressure to respond, and you can ignore this message if it is not relevant to you. This message was sent by a reader through Dr. Trust Me Bro's website. Your address was entered by that reader, not collected by us, and is not added to any mailing list. Independent data journalism, serious citations.

We send this on your behalf from our tip line address. It links the public report and the confidential tip line, and never claims wrongdoing.

Firsthand details help most: how payment and coverage were handled (FSA/HSA card vs. a superbill to submit, declining Medicare/Medicaid). More on the FSA/HSA loophole.
