    Chiropractor is like half scam, and half accidentally doing physical therapy because insurance will fund you going to scam doctor but not the real physical therapist.

      Yeah the positive benefits to any chiropractic is accidental. It's like a cargo cult accidentally making a decent runway for a plane to land on. It worked but the theory to get there was wrong. We know that physical manipulation and massage of injuries make people feel better, but there isn't ghosts in your spine, it's better to see a physiotherapist.

      when I was broke the only care I could get was chiropractor. I assumed I had a bone fracture and needed an xray to confirm, but had to have a vibrating gun applied to my leg
