Quoted message said:Mein said:Used to? They ARE. Your mind is going backwards.
There is no need to be insulting. After you've
gone through approximately 100 m of paperwork
wherein neurologists and sports physicians send
their injured patients to chiropractors, you might
see things a little differently, too. I would not have
believed it myself until I saw it. I didn't say that
chiropractors accomplished anything. I just said that
they provide a service. Some people find value in it.
A good chiropractor will also give the patient advice about their posture,
ergonomics of their computer usage and driving, and exercises and stretches,
where appropriate.
Some chiropractors are bona-fide physical therapists before becoming DC's, and
IIRC, at least one Chiropractic college has an accredited Physical Therapy
co-major.
The problem is when the Chiropractor doesn't understand his appropriate scope
of practice or worse, believes in a literal interpretation of the Subluxation
mythos.
