Don
My mind is never made up.
Although I do have a few conserns with them the truth is I know that chiropractors have helped a lot of people!
I do believe that!
The proof is in the posts above by all those people.
I'm sure your dad is briliant, And I glad he helped you in your peticular case!
Although we've disagreed you have keep your posts to a mature and factual nature and I truly respect you. If I got your goat I'm sorry I was just having fun. Forgive me for acting like an Idiot.

Yeah, yeah...I know where you live too. Whaddya want from me? I don't lie awake at night fantasizing about Bulgarian toads. I have a deep respect for people who put their shoes on one at a time, and I genuflect whenever in the presence of people who can explain relativity without getting snotty about it. So where does that leave you? Have a coke and a smile and go blow your harmonica.

Raptor, sorry I got steamed. All my life I've heard people attack my father despite all the good he has done for friends and patients alike. As I'm sure you can understand, it's kind of a delicate subject for me.

Once you really understand it, I think you'd see that chiropractic is pretty straightforward and logical. I'm going to be tied up for the next few days, but if you're interested, I can write up a brief on the principles of chiropractic and what chiroprators really do, and PM it to you.

Sophocleese, many kudo's to your MD who gave you a PRESCRIPTION to see a DC. Man, i could give that person a medal! If i seem overly exuberant, chalk it up to years of listening to sneers come our offices way.

Many of my friends and their friends are doctors.

Recently, a chap, whose company was embroiled in an international scandal because of poor craftsmanship by outside "contractors" told a TRUE but, horrific tale.

Made very short...it goes like this:

A man who had been seeing a back-specialist became frustrated with his own individual "lack of progress." He went to a chiropractor and acheived immediate relief and satisfaction. He continued with the chiropractor through multiple visits and abandoned his back-specialist.........UNTIL.......the chiroprator "made an adjustment" which shot one of his spinal disks out from his vertibae like a pumpkin seed in the hands of child. The chiroprator confided to the patient that he was "now beyond the abilities of the "chiropractic science."

GUEST,I afraid that story has to be apocryphal. The way the disks are attached to the vertebrae above and below, that's physiologically impossible. Sounds like stuff I've heard before.

I once worked for a Chiropractor in the Twin Cities, a terrific guy & good at manipulation of the spine & other bones. My doctor, however, is an Osteopath! While it is normally quite difficult for me to put my faith & trust in any sort of doctor, I have come to trust him with my life, literally. He can manipulate my back & give me groovy drugs, too! Well, uh, that is, umm, he can treat my illnesses as well as crunch my back--One Stop Shopping at its finest! An Osteopath brought me into this world, and I figure an Osteopath might as well see me the rest of the way through. But, that is just my opinion for myself, and each of us must decide what is best for one's self. I am very fortunate to have medical insurance which provides me with medical services when I need them, something that every human ought to have. Now, if we all decide to be citizens of Canada, or England, we would all have that privilege, but hey, that's another subject!
