They aren't all quacks... there really are some chiropractors who are intuitive and actually do help some people... but the potential for harm is massive. That's why I said be careful with a chiropractor... they aren't a medical doctor, they are an academic doctor... classified the same way a doctor of literature is, and required to take many of the same courses to get that academic doctorate.

Physical Therapists still called them quacks back then. They can give one a stroke if they are not careful with that neck manipulation.

After 20 yrs in the medical field, I've learned ... sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't Listen to your body, do your research and do what works for you because it's different for every single human

"mostly" snake oil. some adjustments help some people some of the time. chiropracty isn't a real medical degree, it's an academic degree.

Why do all chiropractors refer to themselves as "Dr." followed by their first name. Like "Hi there! I am Dr. Dan! Let me teach you about how to lose weight via the treatment of cervical subluxations!"

As a professional science fellow, I view chiropractic interventions are being highly subjective, non-reproducible, and non-quantifiable. While people can try to argue the same is true about traditional medicine, until these same people can explain to me the purpose of a microsomal stability assay or how LC/MS can be used to determine PK rates, then these people are likely trying to talk about things they don't actually understand.

All that being said, I am not going to say one won't feel better after a chiropractic adjustment... I'd just prefer people are real with themselves about that fact that Chiro practices are not actually rooted in any real science nor real medicine... and more importantly, understand there's no real oversight or standards about the quality of care they receive.

I think he meant that using their first name instead of their last name was the weird part.




I mean... um, oops I wasn't part of this conversation.
