Good for you. Some short-sighted folks on this thread think like this:
One bad chiroprator = All bad chiropractors
Why not apply this logic to all facets of life?
One bad steak = All bad steaks
One bad car = All bad cars
Some with bad chiropractic experiences are the victims of charlatanism. Others refuse to take ownership of their own health care. If you go to a chiropractor and tell him that you don't believe that he can fix your high cholesterol and that you'd like him to fix the crick in your neck, thank you very much, most are willing to comply.
Chiroprators specialize in fixing your frame. Nothing more. Sheesh.
I have to say, I was very surprised when I got a referral to a chiropractor from an MD, because I know about the professional antipathy. I even queried the doctor. He told me bluntly I had pelvic displacement, hip and knee displacements, (more torn ligments than I care to remember)and my veterbrae from the waist down looked like jigsaw puzzle pieces. He just bluntly said the injuries were skeletal and that's what chiropractors do!
That isn't true. The practice of chiropracty is founded upon unsubstantiated (and apparently false) claims, and many chiropractors make additional absurd claims.
I know there are chiropractors who admit that much of what they were taught in school and what many chiropractors claim is utter nonsense. Good for them. However, chiropracty is best judged on the princples of chiropracty. Those principles do not hold up to scrutiny.
If someone helps you feel better, you may not care whether or not he claims that Elvis's ghost did it, but ideas are supposed to be the specialty of universities, and such nonsense cannot be ignored by them.
