chiropractor

1) crook
2) wannabe doctor
3) snake oil salesman
4) Not a doctor

A person that cannont get into actual medical school that still thinks they are a doctor. This practice is a joke and is routinely mocked at quackwatch.com
The chiropractor said I needed maintenence on my subluxations on his free neck x-ray. Ironically the neck x-ray I had at the hospital was completely normal.

I got unsolicted mailings and phone calls from chiropractors offices after I was involved in an accident.

The chiropractor sold me herbal supplements

chiropractor

A quack. Psuedo-science mixed with con-artistry and more attention to patient relationships creates a winning$$$ combination. The buzz work of chiropractic "Subluxations" have never been shown on an x-ray.
I saw my chiropractor every week. It was costing me a ton, and then I read quackwatch and realized I'd been taken in by a fraud with no scientific basis

Chiropractor

One who is a licensed practitioner of chiropractic. It is the Doctoral degree comparable to the medical degree, consisting of approximately 5500 hours of post graduate education.
Chiropractic is based on the vitalistic theory that human beings are self-regulating, self-maintaining and self-healing organisms whose nervous systems control and coordinate all other systems of the body. Interference to the nervous system can happen over the course of one's life causing a lessening of the function of the body. Chiropractors reduce or correct these interferences and the body is able to express life through the nervous system once again, creating a healing environment.
The diagnosis and treatment of disease is the practice of medicine using drugs, radiation and surgery. It is interested in sickness and what causes people to die. Chiropractic is the location and correction of nerve pressure by adjusting the spine. It is interested in health and what makes people live.
Since I've been going to the chiropractor, my overall health has improved.

Once the Dr. moved the different parts of my body, and caused them to snap, crackle, and pop i was glad I got Chiropracted because my spine was more aligned.

Chiropractor

An alternative healthcare practitioner with a Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) degree from a 4-year chiropractic college. DC's perform joint and spinal manipulation, based on the vitalistic belief that mechanical adjustments improve health by correcting nerve interference and, thereby, allowing the body’s innate healing intelligence to take over. Despite the name, chiropractic doctors are not medical doctors or physicians.

Systematic reviews of controlled clinical studies have found no evidence that chiropractic manipulation is effective for the treatment of disease, with the possible exception of treatment for back pain.
I thought the YouTube doctor’s advice was kind of fishy, so I checked the bio for his license: D.C… He’s a Chiropractor!
