He's never been to one because it's a well-known scam, I would guess? They have no idea what "evidence-based" entails, and rely on the fact that neither do their clients ("Well, I went to a chiropractor and then felt no pain, so it works.").
I believe there are good chiropractors despite my experience. I ended up finding a few who I believe have been able to reverse some the damage done prior.
To me there are good and bad doctors Good and bad chiropractors Good and bad attorneys Good and bad financial advisors (I was one for a short period into 9/11)
Shop around is my advice.
To the OP topic I would use any financial assistance first to address my spinal cord injury as opposed to further developing the RTS game mod I am creating.
And I guess my segment is no exception...there are good and bad homeless too.
We gotta look deeper than the labels!
If you have a practitioner who works for your problems, more power to you.
However, if you're looking for someone new - do not search among chiropractors. They are - on average - much more likely to harm you than a psychotherapist or osteopath.
But that's just a coincidence -- the name "chiropractor" does not imply those things. Chiropractic itself is not evidenced based in any way.
Aside: I wish you the best in your life and hope you find justice/success/happiness.
To me its the nut of the homeless problem bias. I did not cry 'WOLF'. I said 'Chiropractor' and the rest is inference and in this case I believe mistaken judgement but I would be curious to know what others think.
How about clairvoyants, mediums, and dowsers? Sometimes a whole profession is just nonsense.
> We gotta look deeper than the labels!
It isn't empty labeling. Chiropractic is pseudoscience. This is neither a matter of opinion, nor an open question.
If you can get past your witchhunt against chiropractors then I think you may understand more of what I am trying to say. With respect
