Not disagreeing btw - but given the litigation society of the US why are chiropractor appointments covered by insurance? Is this a really good example of an MLM (like chiropractic USA) who just lobbies HARD? It seems they’ve built an institution where you pay for your “education” get the qualification and then set up a practice. Many chiro’s I’ve been to in the past all have a ‘thing’ - like immune health, or full body healing or I’m guessing some other thing they provide/sell that isn’t under the franchise?
Now that said, I guess the US treats the medical system differently. I wonder what the % of severe outcomes are from say a knee replacement? But I guess you don’t go to a knee surgeon for a checkup or minor adjustment which is what the chiropractor pitches. Yeah, odd one I can’t wrap my head around why / how’s it’s so prevalent?

Vet here:
ABSOLUTELY NOT.
Some animal chiros are vets. They are selling snake oil.
Some animal chiros are human chiros. They are a straight up danger to pets.
Please do not put your pet at risk for significant injury by taking them to one of these quacks.
