Coup for Chiropractic

Dr. Cleveland Named Editorial Consultant for Prevention Magazine

In keeping with the fast-rising trend toward alternative care, and chiropractic in particular, the nation's top consumer health publication, Prevention, has named Dr. Carl Cleveland III as a chiropractic editorial consultant.

Dr. Cleveland's appointment is a coup for chiropractic. As one of the profession's most respected doctors and leaders, he will advise Prevention magazine on chiropractic issues.

"It is a privilege to represent the chiropractic profession in this way," said Dr. Cleveland. "Prevention is a positive health and wellness educational source to millions of readers."

Dr. Cleveland is a fourth-generation chiropractor; daughter Ashley became the fifth generation of chiropractors when she graduated from CCCLA in 1995. Dr. Cleveland's father, Dr. Carl S. Cleveland Jr. (1918-1995), dedicated himself to over 50 years of chiropractic service and education. Dr. Cleveland III continues in that tradition. He has served as president of the Council on Chiropractic Education (1994-1996), is president of the Cleveland Chiropractic College of Kansas City and Los Angeles, and is the national spokesman for the Alliance for Chiropractic Progress.

The Alliance for Chiropractic Progress is a public relations partnership of the American Chiropractic Association, the International Chiropractors Association and the Association of Chiropractic Colleges. The Alliance has, as a first step, focused on educating the public about the education and training of chiropractors.

"Chiropractic has a long tradition of promoting the wellness mindset for optimum health," Dr. Cleveland observed. "I'm confident that Prevention readers will benefit from an informed, chiropractic perspective on health and wellness."

When Radiculopathy Isn't Radiculopathy: A Clinical Series (Pt. 1)
hen Radiculopathy Isn’t Radiculopathy: A Clinical Series

Radicular-like pain of the upper and lower extremities is among the most common presentations in musculoskeletal and spine-related practice. Traditionally, these symptoms are interpreted through a disc-centric and dermatomal framework, often leading clinicians to attribute limb pain, paresthesia or perceived weakness to spinal nerve-root pathology. While this approach is appropriate in cases of true radiculopathy, it frequently falls short when symptoms fail to follow consistent dermatomal patterns or correlate poorly with imaging findings.

Chronic Sciatica: Ending the Relapse Cycle
Chronic Sciatica: Ending the Relapse Cycle

A 46-year-old male presented to our clinic with a seven-year history of recurrent low back pain with sciatica. He reported stiffness and discomfort that worsened with prolonged sitting both at his desk job and during evening television time. The patient had seen multiple chiropractors over the years. In every case, spinal manipulation and other passive treatments would bring gradual symptom relief over 2-3 months. However, within another 3-6 months, the symptoms would return. Frustrated – and now considering a spinal injection and possibly surgery if that failed, he came to our office seeking a different approach.
