The 47-year-old woman, testified that chiropractor Ruben Manz sexually assault her. Manz is accused of sexually assaulting seven women over 10 years while they were under his care.
A woman told a jury Tuesday that a Regina chiropractor reached into her bra and grabbed her breast without her consent during an appointment.
The 47-year-old woman, who cannot be identified due to a publication ban, testified she went to see chiropractor Ruben Manz, in 2011, to treat pain in her neck, shoulders, lower back and hips. Manz is accused of sexually assaulting seven women over 10 years while they were under his care.
The complainant said she was sitting on an exam table when Manz placed a hand on her shoulder, pulled her head to one side and put a hand in her shirt.
He asked if she was OK, she said, and she replied yes but was hesitant.
She told the trial that Manz then moved his hand into her bra and pulled her breast.
“He said, ‘Just relax. It’s part of the treatment,’ And I said, ‘The hell it is,’” the woman testified.
“I got up, grabbed my stuff and left the room,” the woman told the jury what happened to her was wrong and no other chiropractor had touched her that way. She stopped seeing Manz immediately, she said.
“I didn’t trust him. He violated me,” the woman said she reported Manz to a chiropractors’ association the next day. In 2021, after reading a news report about criminal charges against Manz, she went to police.
