Chiropractors are practitioners of an alternative medicine technique that involves the manipulation of the spine and joints to alleviate pain and improve bodily function. However, their methods are not based on scientific evidence and have been found to be ineffective or even harmful in some cases.
Chiropractors do not undergo the same rigorous medical training as real doctors. They are not required to complete a medical degree, residency, or internship. Instead, they attend chiropractic school, which typically lasts for four years, where they learn about the anatomy of the spine and how to perform spinal manipulation. This is not enough to qualify them as real doctors, who have extensive knowledge of the human body and are able to diagnose and treat a wide range of medical conditions.
Chiropractic treatments are often expensive and can be a waste of money. Many insurance plans do not cover chiropractic care, and patients are often required to pay out of pocket for their treatments. Additionally, some chiropractors have been known to use scare tactics to convince patients to undergo unnecessary treatments, which can result in serious injury or even death.
It is important to remember that these practitioners are not real doctors and their methods are not based on scientific evidence. It is always best to seek medical advice from a qualified physician rather than relying on alternative medicine techniques that will kill you.

Too bad most of the “real doctors” also don’t use anything based on scientific evidence, but anything an albino nagger tells them to use (or they are the albino naggers themselves).
Anyone who claims to be an authority on anything in a world where they are taught falsehoods for ten years by institutions bribed by israelites is your enemy and if trusted will leave you broke and dead.
real doctors are scum too
BASED.
I'd rather see a chiropractor with acupuncture and naturopathy skills than a family practitioner any day.
>alternative medicine
deserved it. next.
NOOOO THIS FUCKING GOY SHOULD HAVE JUST TAKEN DR. SHEKELBERG'S OPIOID PRESCRIPTIONS
Going to a good Chiropractor is fine. Obviously something was overlooked during the initial diagnosis for Caitlen Jensen.
What kind of diagnostic modalities would chiropractors even employ? Most people just go in and say "my back hurts" or some bullshit.
There is no such thing as a "good chiro". Either go to a massage specialist (if it's not too bad) or to a physiotherapist.
"Real" doctors have harmed and killed far, far more people than chirocpractors ever have or will.
They've earned that right.
>earned
>right
No
Do you know how much time and money I've spent to get to where I am today? Why do you care if I maim or kill someone now and then? A lot of my patients are annoying af. I bet you spit in a burger or two at your McJob. Afford me the same courtesy.
I trust dentists
Spine surgery is just as fucked up. You can't just twist peoples spines or yank on the joints
Gubmint mope here with idiotically lavish medical benefits. We can actually go and see an aromatherapist, acupuncturist, etc 60 times per year - it's covered, so long as we are referred to it. PCPs of course usually won't write prescriptions for that shit because that's what it is, shit. The loophole is that we can self-refer to a chiropractor, and they can prescribe it. So long as they get their piece of the action, they'll sign anything.
All surgery is done with the hope, hopefully informed hope, that after adverse consequences from surgery are accounted for, the patient will be better off. You're trading one set of problems for another hoping for a gain.
my brother had a fucked up back for years, repeatedly went to a doctor and nothing helped. got to the point that his painkillers barely worked at all and he walked around stoned out of his mind like a zombie.
went to the chiropractor once and immediately was better. now he goes once every month or two
did he ever try sleeping on a mat on the floor? overtime that will straighten out your back up to the neck.
That's exactly what I'm going to do. I've got a huge pain in my back, neck and now a headache. My mattress is too soft.
>neck sore from repetitive motion at work
>told to see chiropractor, it's covered under insurance, nothing to lose
>he lightly cracks my neck in one place and tells me a number of exercises to help the sore muscle work better
>charged a "first time visit" fee
>insurance won't cover anything except the base cost for the cheapest chiropractors around
>end up paying $80 out of pocket just to be told "stretch ur neck bro"
>neck sore from repetitive motion at work
= tense neck muscles
>go see a masseuse
DUMB ASS
I wonder why ~~*they*~~ want you to think that
Well chiropracty is total bullshit, but that's probably not why they wrote this article. More likely it's because they're against vaccination.
>12 years old
>still pissing the bed at night

Many may be quacks but there are some good ones out there
>pain in both achilles tendons for 7 years
>exercises I found online don't help at all
>no insurance
>can barely walk, can't work, can't afford doctor, don't qualify for gibs because not working and lack medical diagnosis
>family member dies
>leaves me some money to get checked out
>go to physical therapist because cheaper than doctor
>says there's nothing wrong with my achilles tendons but I have the tightest soleus muscles she's ever seen
>spend 2 week trial just stretching
>foot pain gone
>paid $750 to stretch my calves
Fuck off chat GPT. You're a homosexual.
It's important to check if they have good reviews before you go, and don't overdo it.
I only went twice in my life, because I had really bad neck pains, and both times it worked like a charm. I had went to a doctor beforehand who prescribed me muscle relaxation pills (barely lowered the pain) and told me to go to a chiropractor. Just don't go to a shit one.
Most "real doctors", at least in the US, are nothing but pharmaceutical salesmen and work for the people paying the, insurance companies and big pharma.
You are right. Doctors don't work for their patients, but are stooges for ~~*Big Pharma)) and the insurance companies, whose interests are not in "curing" diseases. It is more profitable for them to keep people sick
take this pill, oh but there's side effects there's a pill for that, and on and on and on till you are sorting your 20 dialy pills in a pill box you can't forget to take or you die.
they aren't real doctors
ones less girl spamming selfies on the internet.
Clearly you've never heard of Dr. Ian who has cured so many people of immense pain. So much that he was threatened to lose is license because he cured a baby of colic and that other ~~*doctors*~~ wanted to use drugs on the baby. I get that most doctors are evil, but not all of them
>So much that he was threatened to lose is license because he cured a baby of colic
Some non specific growing pain bullshit which fixes itself most of the time.
The drugs are for the benefit of the parents more than the baby.
>However, their methods are not based on scientific evidence and have been found to be ineffective
Fake and gay, they fixed a problem I had and also a problem that I thought was normal until they fixed it. My posture is much better after visiting one
>their methods are not based on scientific evidence and have been found to be ineffective or even harmful in some cases.
Same can be said for all surgeons, gp, psychs, and any "doctor" trained in Big Pharma sponsored colleges.
she looks happy, for what it's worth.
>medicine technique that involves the manipulation of the spine and joints
Don't go to a bone fixer if having no bone problems. Go to a masseuse.
How hard can be?
>Go to a masseuse.
I go to a masseuse for my bone problem.
just seeing it makes me cringe
I went to a chiropractors once.
>Me and my friend, and his father went to a Chiropractors
>we're gonna take turns
>Father goes in first
>He waits until he has his neck cracked
>Shits him self and goes limp in the "Doctors" hands
>Doctor panics
>Me and my friend freak out and run out
>Father was pranking them (And we were in on it)
>severing four of a person's arteries with nothing but your bare hands
Fuck medicine, start teaching this magic touch-of-death bullshit as a martial art.
only your genetics can save you
everything else is a cope
News flash: Most doctors are actively hostile to the health of their patients, and are just in it for the money and clout to fill the gaping insecurities in their soul
damn. imagine having a 8/10 snatched away in an instant because of a retard chiropractor
Just in; Bad chiropractors are bad... (Just as bad doctors are bad...)
I served as a Medic, and saw secondhand the effect good chiropractors had on soldiers with real problems. The Norwegian armed forces don't have much going, but we got some of the best medical system for our soldiers. And they swear by good chiropractors for a reason.
Well, it consistently helped my mother with otherwise debilitating spinal pain for like thirty years so I have to disagree with your official line here.
the fact that she’s still smiling moves me and makes me so grateful that we have a good god who is about to return for his bride
I will swear by chrio. saved me! actual doctors were useless.
but 80% of chrios are crap. and it's expensive and dangerous hunting for one of the good 20%.
The chiropractor fucks up your spine so you have to come back
The dentist fucks up your teeth do that you have to come back
The eye doctor purposely tells lies about your health so that your vision deteriorates and you have to come back
she probably still has at least 10 simps ready and waiting
>is specialist
>go to specialized school
>y u not kno all medicine ever?
You're a dumb naggerhomosexual
You can tell the quacks from the real chiro's pretty easily, the quacks always have lots of bullshit about all diseases actually being caused by back misalignment hung up all over and they want to schedule you for appointments like every day. Real chiros are closer to a physical therapist who's also an orthopedist.
Also dunno how you fucking sever four arteries getting your back or neck adjusted
Imagine trusting back crackers
oh he paralysed her?
big deal, so what?
the NHS killed my parents
>Chiropractors are scum
compared to what group of medical practitioners?
Yeah, never ever go to a chriopractor.
A discussion about medicine on /misc/, how fucking delightfully moronic.
I am really glad that people are allowed to make their own choices regarding their healthcare, cause it's one of the few avenues for natural selections we have left.
>be me. Back real fucked up from multiple injuries. Working desk job. Can barely walk from lower back injuries. Can't run. Hands fucked up from upper back injuries. Keep going numb. Start to cramp up and close. Doctors say if I go to a chiro I'll be paralyzed. Finally, can't even wipe my ass. Literally can't do it, my arm is so cramped it won't hold the tp and I can't get my arm behind me.
>suicide looking like a good plan. Too young for this shit. Might as well try chiro first, literally nothing left to lose.
>chiro says my back is real fucked up. No shit Sherlock. Adjusts me twice a week for two months. I do stupid little exercises.
>I can walk without pain. I can run. I can play sports. I can wipe my own fucking ass. I'm fucking alive like a normal person.
>fuck you doctors. Thank you chiro.
If you need realignment and can find one, go to a non-invasive or non-surgical osteopath.
Dentists are a scam too. I had a dentist tell me chiropractors are good and do the work a dentist doesn’t. Obviously you should brush your teeth 3 times a day, floss and mouthwash but you don’t need to go to a dentist.
>3 tims
Too much and most dentists are no better than doctors.
Real doctors are pharma pill pushers who want to keep you ill so you can come back for more "treatment". Fuck off kike
Chiropractor helped my back when nothing else was working.
I bought a new mattress and decided to try a super soft variant which starting killing my back.
No amount of stretching and light work outs or yoga would get rid of the pain.
Then I visit a Chiropractor and 15 minutes later I feel fucking GREAT. He also gave me good advice for high rep arm workouts to prevent RSI.
This was a decade ago. Now that I can see the patterns It's obvious Chiropractors are the real deal and the system will always slander them because they don't want you to be healthy or happy.
I'll bet acupuncture works great as well.
100% corona vaxx side effect and they just use it as a push against alternative medicine
Medical malpractice/error is the third leading cause of death.
>real practicians
>certified specialist
>diplomed doctor
But yeah if you pay to get your spine cracked by a random baboon you deserve your wheelchair
You literally just need a back roller. I tell everyone that you can fix all your problems with a back roller and a week or two. They all just pay the kikerochractor to fuck their shit up eternally.
