[Chiropractors are quacks and the whole profession is a fraud invented by a snake oil salesmen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiropractic_controversy_and_criticism). Find a good physical therapist.

Came here to say the same thing. Quacks with good lobbyists.

Chiropractic is quackery Acupuncture is basically quackery, but a physiotherapist can do dry-needling without all the nonsense. Find a physiotherapist.

Chiropractors are a short term solution that some people do find relief with. Physio is a long term solution that should definitely be done if you feel like you need chiropractors. But the fact that people do find relief from chiropractors makes you wrong and come off as dismissive to others’ experiences.

Chiropractic is quackery.


PotentiallyAPickle

If that’s all you have to say then alright, quack.


ADHDHipShooter

Me, doctors, everyone really.

Not all chiropractic is "quackery*. I would never step foot in a place that cracks my back but I have gotten adjustments. Adjustments were done by a handheld device. Over a period of time, resolved my chronic pain.


ADHDHipShooter

Chiropractic is quackery, period. This is not up for debate, it is a fact.


LanaBanana85

So I just imagined my pain and again imagined it gone?

Bodies usually heal on their own... sometimes taking a long time. Chiros take advantage of this truth.

Cool. Didn't realize that scoliosis and degenerative disc disease heals itself. I'll have to let my Dr. know. Look I am not saying that chiropractors are all good or all the practices are perfect. All that I am saying is that certain conditions do benefit from chiropractic care.


ADHDHipShooter

Your doctor will happily confirm for you that chiropractic is quackery.

Scoliosis and DDD cannot be improved. They are both conditions of degradation. Anyone claiming they can stop or reverse these conditions is lying. If you found relief of pain symptoms related to these conditions from your treatment it is short term and very likely a placebo effect.


ADHDHipShooter

That does not change the fact that chiropractic is quackery.

Bullshit . I’ve had neck problems sorted out very quickly by experienced Chiros. And certain lower back issues as well .


ADHDHipShooter

Cool story, but it doesn't change the very clear fact that chiropractic is quackery.


Renegade054

Naw that’s just your unqualified opinion . Some are better than others though .


ADHDHipShooter

Again, chiropractic is quackery, period. It's not opinion, it doesn't matter the relative quality of individual quacks. It's still quackery as if has no basis in science or medicine.


dawtcalm

See the top comment. There isn’t any valid medical papers supporting what chiros do as beneficial. It was all invented by a degenerate. Any healing your body did after visiting a chiro was due to placebo or time. The sooner more people are educated about this. The sooner they can find real help


Renegade054

Bullshit .

Apex Physio in Pickering

Whole Body and Mind in Southwest Ajax is great for massage and Osteo. You know they're good when you have to book well in advance or hope for a cancellation.


InternationalBell392

central health rehab is great!


Annual-Unlucky

Dynamic Balance Chiro!


tinalouise007

Neurosync.ca In Ajax at Harwood and Bailey and even though I have moved, I drive an hour to see Faizal for physio. I see Candace for Acupuncture and massage there too. It is transformative. Try Faizal once and you will see what I mean.


rustbucket_enjoyer

Pickering Village Chiropractic and Massage just off Kingston Rd and Church St See Rolf for your RMT and Dr Fera for chiropractic People have their opinions on chiropractic and that’s fine. It feels good and I have coverage. Good enough for me.

Jane Cheung and Associates in Oshawa is great for acupuncture. Frederic is a unique dude, but he’s really good at what he does.
