Local Chiari resources

[LEONFL]

Hello, new to the community.  Was diagnosed a few years back and have seasonal symptoms.  I agree with all comments about Chiros and treatment by Chiari specialist.  I am wondering if someone can share a specialist in my area (Miami, Florida).

Hello, LEONHL: I just had a second chiari malformation decompression surgery a month ago.  Good luck! Will be praying for you for a fast recovery if you do decide to have surgery.  I'm still recovery.  One bad thing about my chiari malformation is that I have paralysis so my doctor can't really do an assessment until 4 to 6 months from now.
