Time for European style socialized medine

[Red Celt]

My mum is a physio and what she does is all covered by the NHS here, but I don't think chiropractors are... but I wouldn't really know, I have never been to one.

Yup. I've had physio treatment via the NHS. I've visited a chiro once, in my life... an experience not to be repeated. And that was private, not NHS.

In the UK, chiropracty has always (ttbomk) been related to bad backs. It wasn't until I heard Americans going on about them, that I realised that they've slipped very much into woo over there. Perhaps here, too, with some "practicioners". If they claim that they can cure anything that isn't spine/ligament related, they're woo. If they're not woo, they're still of dubious value. My back was much worse after seeing one. On other occasions, I've self-treated (by being sensible) and recovered much quicker.
