I know a doctor who swears by his chiropractor. He also thinks they are great for keeping people out of the real doctors’ office

Sounds like this was written by an MD. They hate chiropractors.
Some are charlatans, some are real healers. I’ve had good luck with a couple of them through the years.
To: Red Badger
Before they go there, who paid for the study?

My chiro”crack”ter broke one of my ribs a few weeks ago!
To: Red Badger
I kind of read from this article that they really did not do a good study on Chiropractic and back pain.
Title should read equally...
Chiropractors may be of GREAT USE in treating back pain.

Yep, I know a disabled retired Orthopedic surgeon who regularly goes to his Chiropractor friend for his ONLY relief.

In my wife’s case:
Chiropractors may be at fault in CAUSING back pain.

Exactly - who paid for this study???
I'd go to my chiro 3 times a week if I could afford it. NOTHING makes my back feel better for 2 or 3 weeks at a time than having my guy crack me around.
To: Red Badger
Could be, in my opinion, only 20% of them know how to treat.
Same could be said for most professionals in health care I fear...

Some are charlatans, some are real healers.The "real healers" are the ones who have perfected the art of eliciting the placebo effect.The charlatans haven't.

How's that
To: Red Badger
Where do they get this crap? The whole article battles a strawman from the beginning; chiropractic deals with far more than ‘manipulating’ the back.

All I know is that my friends and family who use a chiropractor say they feel better for it. Isn’t that the point?

If there is such a thing as a ‘real’ doctor, the chiropractor has to be the closest thing to it.
