Summary
A 33-year-old California mother, Jaycie Conley, suffered three strokes and was left permanently disabled after a chiropractic neck adjustment in December 2021. She initially sought treatment for a persistent headache she attributed to stress and sleep deprivation while caring for her 6-month-old son. The chiropractic adjustment caused a life-threatening artery tear that led to three strokes, resulting in permanent disability.
