Osteopaths (Doctors of Osteopathy) can also do manipulation. The difference is they have a medical background. Chiropractors are limited in this regard and could overlook the actual cause of illnesses.

I have had many positive experiences with chiropractic care.
If I took my medical doctors advice. I would be an addict in chronic pain. Who’s the quacks.

One of the doctors who said that chiropractors were very good in certain cases was an Osteopath.

I have never been pressured to undergo numerous, repetitive treatments.

The experience has been pretty much the same each time. Go in with pain, come out without pain. The pain level lessened to the point that I have not gone in for a few years now.

I would not say that I am “cured”. If I stop doing my exercises, and have to sleep on different mattresses for a while, the pain starts to come back.

The effect of the exercise has at times been almost as dramatic as the Chiropractor treatment.
