"Chiropractic care, I’m sorry to say, is little more than the buffoonery of
a 19th-century lunatic who derived most of his medical theory from séances.
It has not evolved much since its creation. Chiropractic beliefs are
dangerously far removed from mainstream medicine, and the vocation’s
practices have been linked to strokes, herniated discs, and even death.
Chiropractors can’t replace your doctor, and I’m amazed that they’re still
even allowed to practice. You shouldn’t trust them with your spine or any
other part of your body, and here’s why.
As the legend goes, chiropractic medicine was born on September 18, 1895,
when Daniel David Palmer, a magnetic healer in Davenport, Iowa, met a deaf
janitor named Harvey Lillard. Palmer claimed they had a conversation about
how Lillard’s hearing could be repaired by adjusting his spine, and with a
crack of the back, the janitor’s auditory woes were cured. This was the
launching point for the pseudoscience of chiropractic (how the practice of
chiropractic medicine is commonly referred to). From there, Palmer
continued to work on his theories, eventually opening up chiropractic
schools that still exist to this day (yearly tuition at the Palmer College
of Chiropractic in Iowa: $34,000. Acceptance rate: 100 percent), and the
field of chiropractic medicine emerged."
There is much more but you will read the truth and how this practice harms
people.
