  1. Most chiropractors are scam artists. Not all. I went to a chiropractor who, no matter what i told her, she'd hit the same 3 spots and fixed nothing. I've never heard a chiro claim to be the fix all for everything. I wouldn't go to one who did claim that.

  2. I'm not an advocate for chiropractors, but I've had back pain for most of my life. I've gone to a couple of chiropractors a few times in my life, and they do help whether medical doctors want to believe it or not.

  3. No doctor is an expert… They are professionals . Expert implies extremely minimum mistakes, professional means very good but mistakes can happen. There’s a difference. Experts are people like competition shooters, snipers, etc.

  4. Had poor mobility and hip issue. Tried to play soccer for 2 years and had to stop. No physio therapy made it better. Spoke to physio who’s works with soccer players and he told me to see chiropractor. I have twisted pelvis. Dropped arch in right foot and spine is twisted etc. I’ve only just started treatment and have seen an improvement straight away.

  5. This is like saying that psychologists are not real Doctors in their field. Obviously because the only “real” doctors are the ones who flush you with chemicals until you feel ok (temporarily).

  6. DCs are absolute clowns. But for some reason they do have certain devices that help. My podiatrist recommended foucsed and radial shockwave and class IV laser. Podiatrist should have those devices then but HMO dont cover it. literally hate stepping into their offices and paying them.

  7. Last time I ever went to chiropractor who was one the wife talked me into going to with the kids and we went there about 6 months and then found out he was leaving for a distant City and that day he knows she needed a complete workup and we had to get x-rays in the whole deal was the last time saw him in the office. He was milking the patients for travel money and moving costs

  8. My Dr referred me to a chiro for my back. A few adjustments, taught me stretches & exercises to do that helped my back. I only see them once every 6 months

  9. I've had doctor's tell me to see chiropractors lmao doctors are thr biggest scammers in the west. Frankly a persons health and comfort should be the most important thing. Yall dont recognize the validity of their practice but plenty of people have a healthy and valid distrust in medicine as well.

  10. oh please, let me schedule my 3rd back surgery because they have MD after their name. up to 40% of back surgeries are considered failures. Not to mention the opioid crisis in this country is because of the MD initials.

  11. In my country denmark chiropractors study the first 4 years with medical students, after five years they turn in ther master thesis has a one year long resedency before getting their autorisation. Ther after they licenced healt personal, who can order x rays mr scans, and admit you in hospitals for further treatment
    In denmark the study it self is called clinical biomechanics and the title is chiropractor. So it really depends

  12. Personally I have a really good chiropractor. She did physical therapy, adjustments, and helped with stretching out my back. I’ve been going to her ever since my back injury at 15.

  13. Your comments apply to some but not all chiropractic physicians, it is only a minority that believe nonsense, you are misleading people when you make the sort of claims you are making.

  14. You are correct chiropractors are not doctors and yet they get the title in canada. I honestly believe that is in fact why they become Chiropractor‘s. It’s a shortcut to being able to use the title doctor on your drivers license on your license plate with your friends over the PA system, etc. then they branch out and they begin to advocate, they can solve all types of different problems which of course they aren’t qualified to do but they have that title of doctor

  15. Chiropractic care may have peeps over hype it and sensationalize what it can do. But on the other side, they are trying to prescribe pills to handle the side effects of the other pills they gave you. You do you i guess. Ill stick to my medical massage and skeletal realignment. Im under no illusion, i know what it fixes and what it doesnt. Ill be pain free and opiate free.

  16. You are a lying b****because chiropractors are better doctors than medical doctors chiropractic is a specialty profession do you get paid more than regular medical doctors

  17. You know chiropractors study for 4 years in a graduate program that studies the human body just like an MD does? Except they really study the human body and not drugs. How is a chiropractor not a doctor?

  18. I had a bad neck Pain for 4 months, MDs prescribed me with medication and did nothing, then I went to a chiropractor and he adjusted my neck and the pain disappeared almost immediately. And there’s indeed a lot of scientific evidence that chiropractic does help in some conditions.

  19. Correction! Depending on what state you are in Chiropractors are considered doctors! For example, Chiropractors are LEGALLY doctors in the state of Michigan!
