Those that are bound within the joint complexes adjusted.
I'm not aware of any reputable research that has identified toxins being released following an adjustment.
There is no scientific evidence that a chiropractic adjustment releases toxins. This is a myth. It unfortunately may lead to misinformation about health, potential patient harm, and distrust in evidence based medicine.
The chemicals released during an adjustment are completely unique to you! It depends on what you're exposed to on a daily basis such as where you work if there's chemicals, what you and drink, what products you clean your home with, etc. The list is endless which is what makes the adjustment so great! Acupuncture, cupping, and massage are beneficial as well when it comes to releasing toxins from your body.
As a chiropractor of 33 years I am not aware of any toxins released from a spinal adjustment.
Toxins released during a chiropractic adjustment depend on the toxins within the body of the individual receiving the adjustment.
