@bicardii75 You find it amusing that other health diciplines try to emulate chiropractic? What do they know that you don' know? Now that's amusing....

@solveroftruth We undertand chiropractic doctors complete the same curricula but 500 more hours than MD's.

@munekitapoblANA Aren't MD's the fourth largest cause of death in the U.S.?
-
@maximusprime2013 Did you say "...medicine has to clean up the mess" The same health field that became the fourth largest cause of death in the U.S.?

Actually, Chiropractor's clean up the mess that MD's make. Medication makes the body do what or doesn't want to do which is very unhealthy. Chirpractic does not cause strokes, I've seen many cases in which Chiropractic has the stroke patient fully mobilized and talking right in the very first day whereas if they were under an MD's supervision, it would take months if not years for them to be close to halfway of normal.

agree this is what happens when you get little knowledge and call your self a "doctor" that causes the problem. How come major Universties dont have chiropractic schools, ie, UCLA, USC, NYU, lol. they have thier independent college though.

Actually, there is a lot of harm: lying to patients about the soruces of their ailments, lying about means in which health problems can be treated, instilling fear into parents of children, plus the physical harms, like the 200+ strokes encountered last year as a result of chiropractic neck manipulation that was seen in my clinic (with NEUROLOGISTS aka MEDICAL DOCTORS) Chiropractic does what it will, and real medicine has to clean up the mess

I doubt faith healers have 5 years University training & over 200 clinic hours experience prior to graduating. I also doubt the Australian Goverment would include Chiropractic as a valid form of treatment for Workers Compensation, DVA & the EPC Scheme through Medicare if there was no evidence Chiropractic was beneficial. The thing that I find most amusing is the number of GP's, Physios and Specialists who continue to try their hand at manipulation. Please leave manipulation to the experts!

You are partially right. There is little to no harm with chriopractic adjustments, but there are major benefits. As far as limited knowledge, wrong again. Chiropractic physicians have the same amount of doctoral acedemic hours (more in anatomy and physiology) as medical doctors do. And why would a chiropractic pretend to be a medical doctor? They are treating patients without the needles, drugs or surgery? Please do your research before spreading nonsense.
