Give a vulnerable person a kind word, the human touch, and a bit of flim-flam, and you would be amazed at the medical results. A placebo effect does not make a science.

Chiropractic remains an essentially criminal enterprise.

I agree, chiros & DO's, who pass themselves off as medical doctors are criminals. A number of years ago my father spent a few weeks in a "hospital" with back pain. When I was able to go & check on him, I found him in a "chiropractors/DO's PRIVATE hospital". He was recieving daily whirlpool baths & hot packs to treat 3 badly ruptured discs.

Aside from being 'extremly clean' the treatment had done NOTHING for him except extract money from his medicare account. I called an ambulance & had him transfered to a REAL hospital where he had surgery immediately & recovered quickly.

The same DO mistreated my mothers extreme highblood pressure & she had a severe stroke & lived for 5 more years as a complete invalid. BTW my father ruptured the discs while caring for my invalid mother.

This one incompetent man had their complete trust because he called himself Doctor. He completely destroyed the lives of 2 relatively healthy seniors who might have had many more good years if they had had REAL medical care. I see cases like this as being the reason MD's are against chiros & DO.
