Abstract: A 74-year-old male presented for Chiropractic care with concerns relating to back pain, hypertension and reflux.

Over the course of care, he noted that his mental acuity improved. This was significant given he was acting in board and organisational roles post-retirement, and self-reported increased mental sharpness and ability to think and act strategically.

These findings, though anecdotal and in addition to his primary reasons for care, are consistent with Chiropractic research indicating that Chiropractic care has impacts on the prefrontal cortex area of the brain.
