What happened to Sara?

Imagine seeking relief for neck pain and ending up fighting for your life—Sara Bissica’s story is one you won't easily forget. On this episode of the Why Smart Women podcast, we highlight Sara's terrifying experience with a chiropractic neck adjustment gone horribly wrong. Sara, an accomplished professional at ANZ, turned to a chiropractor as a last resort for her neck pain during the COVID-19 pandemic, only to find herself in an emergency room battling a stroke. Her ordeal serves as a dire warning about the hidden dangers of alternative medical practices that many of us might overlook.In my experience, there are different strands of chiropractic, one rational and evidence-based and one whacky and dangerous. I have had a positive experience with a chiropractor for shoulder and knee pain, but I have never had my neck adjusted. Journey with us through the chaos of her medical emergency, from the frantic moments in the emergency room to the exhaustive path of recovery in the stroke ward. Sara recounts the critical role of her medical team, especially Dr. Brendan Steinfort, and how trust and expert care became her lifeline. Finally, we tackle a broader conversation on the dangers of alternative medicine, scrutinising common misconceptions around "natural" treatments. Sara's story is a stark reminder of the importance of evidence-based medical practices and scientific validation. We stress the necessity of trusting trained medical professionals over unverified alternative treatments. As a parting note, we urge you to always trust your instincts in any situation that feels unsafe, and remind our listeners to stay sharp and savvy in their health decisions.
