Foundation of the whole thing is a belief in energies and chakras and ghosts and shit; chiropractors frequently harm patients (google vertibrobasilar artery stroke); no evidence that chiropractors can treat any kind of pain effectively.

And while DC are not classified as MD they are permitted by hipaa to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal conditions which are the vast majority of presented conditions in the medical field. However by your conclusion physical therapist would also be considered a scam
