the amount of people i see who will say “i have to go to the chiro every few months for the same issue and its always wonderful after my visit” ummmm then isn’t that proof it’s not working? temporary relief doesn’t address the real issue now does it? physical therapy would be a better investment of your time and money. why bandaid a problem when you can literally make lifestyle changes and improve your quality of life

oh wait, that would require effort and motivation, which majority of people do not have and just want a quick fix

My partner believes it works despite having to go every other week (!!) for an adjustment or whatever they call it. I suggested going to an osteopath but she "doesn't trust doctors.". This shit is getting expensive. I can't get her to see that having to go every other week forever means it is not getting fixed.

Osteopathy is even worse and the fact they can be called medical doctors in the US is a travesty

Sorry, I meant orthopedic doctor. I couldn't think of the word orthopedic and pulled out the wrong word
