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!

A “doctor” who performs “massages,” and if one gets lucky, happy endings are a bonus.
Note: These specific types typically work out of a local gym’s office and will shit where they eat. Committed clients preferred.

Me: Hey can you recommend a good place to get my back fixed?
Buddy: No, but I know a place that can attempt to get your back blown. Just have your insurance code it as “chiropractic work.”
Disclaimer - Chiropractors are often a physically hideous sight; bring a paper bag.

When you have a really bony spine and a girl grinds her vagina on it for pleasure. Hurts at first, but your back feels great the next day.
John: "Dude I heard you fucked Sarah last night"
David: "Yeah and she gave me a vaginal chiropractor. Hurt like shit at first, but my back has never felt looser."

A professional who specializes in a system of therapy that involves treating the patient, often suffering from a personality disorder, with a dose of common-sensical advice aimed at adjusting said character flaws. This is usually done by questioning their motivations and career/financial goals while refraining from practicing negative reinforcement or punishment. Most patients resist and therefore continue down their current destructive path. Coined by Superfan Giovanni Giorgio on the Adam Carolla Show(1/17/13).
Adam Carolla: Hey Tara, when you screen the calls for tonight's Loveline, can you limit the suicide ones, please?
(Tara laughs while watching "The Simpsons" on TV)
Adam Carolla: HEY!! Let's focus. You've got a job to do. Now I was saying I'd like less-
Tara: You're not my boss!!
Adam Carolla: Whoa, someone's in desperate need of an emotional chiropractor.
