Spine warlocks are a cancer in the ass of medicine.

    Fuck chiropractors. They're not good. Some of them even claim to be able to cure structural spinal problems lol. Like how the fuck are you going to change the shape of a vertabre with a manipulation lmao. That shit is made of bone, you can't change the shape of bones like that obviously. Bunch of grifters.

        I just have a very personal vandetta against chiropractors after seeing the clowns on YouTube and irl claim that they can cure structural problems. I mean look at this shit, where they claim to cure wedged vertabre with chiropractic. At best the guy was misdiagnosed and actually had a posture problem, which means his back will go back to how it was within a month because the muscles are still the same, at worse it's all faked to promote this chiropractor's YouTube. Disgusting.

        They need to see a spinal specialist and get x rays, that the specialist will use to confirm the diagnosis, severity and type of scoliosis, not a chiropractor. You might wait a while with the NHS, but I had to wait until I had enough money to see the specialists

      There’s only one chiropractor I’ve ever trusted and it’s because he realized chiropractic is a scam and spends his time disproving dumb claims and cites actual medical journals

        Yeah, the only good chiropractors I've heard of are those that refuse to work on people with structural problems, like scoliosis, kyphosis, etc.
