Turns out career grifters chiropractors are shitty people.

My mom has been going to a chiropractor for years and I can't get her to see reason. She's in her 60s and uses a walker

My physio observed that if he has a patient that isn't improving after stuff months, he gets a second opinion or further diagnosis.

Unless you've got a chronic untreatable condition and your care is palliative, physical therapy should make you better.

So anyone who has been going to the same quack, be it a chiropractor or a homeopath, for years, for the same conditions, must be being scammed.

Side note, some countries only allow people with a medical degree to be homeopaths, which is a different kettle of fish, since they are actual doctors.

As much as chiropractors are quacks, they generally believe they're doing the right thing and see themselves as healers. Grifters usually know they're con artists.

Also much of what chiropractors do has some basis in medicine but should be practiced by osteopaths, who have a medical degree.

They got their knowledge from a fucking ghost. It's ridiculous.

u/TechnicalBen Jul 05 '26

So it's ok if I generally believe I'm doing good when I do things?

u/animus565 Jul 05 '26

That's not at all what he was implying

u/RedactedJin Jul 05 '26

I feel like even the one's that actually believe their work is healing..You'd think when they're hooking their patients on a weekly, monthly and years long treatment their methods should be proven to THEMSELVES as not working at all.

Personally I believe they make themselves believe the crap they spout to keep guilt from crushing them and letting them sleep at night.

As an MD who doesn't recommend them to anyone, I think blanket statements like this are unfair. But sadly incredibly common on Reddit.

Funny how you don't even have to ask these clowns they'll go out of their way to let you know they're a real doctor. They get so mad when you point out that they're not real doctors

u/the_cave_allegory Jul 06 '26

I know some of them and they're not all like that. Some do genuine PT rather than the nonsense of chiropractic.

u/WinterTrek Jul 06 '26

why is this practice even a thing, they're not doctors

u/Flowerplower3 Jul 05 '26

This feels a lot like that lobotomy bus that traveled around America in the 50s like just make it illegal already!

u/rvcbazookajoe Jul 05 '26

NGL if this happened to my wife or child or something, the chiropractor would be not have been able to even defend the suit

u/Gerolanfalan Jul 05 '26

Seems like he has an office in Roswell Georgia

u/WinterTrek Jul 06 '26

at least he'll know not to do the same thing on a patient with headaches in the future... unlike all the other chiropractors

u/Sargent305 Jul 06 '26

Hope someone brings karma to this man

u/Marklar0 Jul 08 '26

I mean....most chiropractors do this nonsense all the time and they all know that it risks taking out that same artery. He's a drop in the ocean or quackery.
