Chiropractic Treatments

What do you think of if it altogether? I think it works, but I agree allot of things are BS.

Here are some videos.

Your opinions?

KST adjustment? What the hell is that? When I crashed my motorcycle eleven years ago, I don't remember having to do that.

Its new apparently.

Looks crap TBH. But Dr G, in the second video I think says it looks like he knows what hes doing and it looks like its real but he isn't completely sure because he hasn't studied it.

Good to hear he's speaking from a position of enlightenment.

...

He knows what hes talking about, its all chiropractic after all but he isn't COMPLETELY sure.

Nice, nice. He's not, is he?

You getting some, then?

Chiropractic Treatments

the first video is absolute crap and the one with the japanese doctor seems irresponsible and dangerous. When well trained, and performed gently, chiropractors can perform miracles and i know cause in my opinion, mine is the best. If i may ask, why was this topic started?

Chiropractic <<<<< Physiotherapy + real doctors 🙂

have you ever been to a good one? cause physiotherapy alone i've found is slow and leads to insufficient recovery and all doctor's do is perscribe opiates.

lol

so we are comparing the "best" chiropractic to inadequate physio?

imho, chiropractic techniques that are legit should be (and I'm sure are) picked up by physiotherapists.

Thats kind of the situation with my doc, before she entered chiropractic she spent quite a few years as an orthopedic surgeon at John Hopkins which is also where she got her degree. She then went into physiotherapy, then chiropractic.

Its not that there isn't good chiropractic, its that there is no real standardized practice by them. I'm sure there is good chiropractic, but then there are those who claim that all disease can be cured by spinal manipulations. Since I am not an expert in human anatomy or whatever, I kinda have to just assume that the person performing any work on me knows what they are doing, and there is no guarantee with a chiropractor that they will use real and scientifically proven techniques.

and there is no guarantee with a chiropractor that they will use real and scientifically proven techniques.

I think there is some kind of chiropractic certification

but my point is that the practice of chiropracty itself doesn't conform to scientific standards. One can practice very good chiropracty, and not good science.

I've had Chiropractic Treatments. I found them beneficial. I am always into alternative therapies and medicines. The more natural the better, in my view. The Far East seems to be more advanced in certain techniques than the West, but we are less resistant than we used to be some 10 years ago. At one time it was considered a facade to take on something outside of modern medicines, but as more and more people get well from alternative medicines and practices, the acceptance of things are growing.

well, from what i gather, statistics say that chiropractic helps with faster recovery and a much lower rate of permanent disability than other treatments but just like the equally successful acupuncture, the scientific explanation of its success is still a work in progress. Although with chiro, i just kind of assumed that it was just a manual correction of minor and major dislocations, therefore unpinching nerves, restoring bloodflow, and forcing your muscles to relax. Manually doing what doctor's would accomplish with ibuprofin or a crortizon shot.
