Chiropractors are still ripping people off. Plus it can do harm. My Grandfather went to one years ago with problems with his hip. He thought it was great, they fixed the issue fine. Except it just felt fine; now, years later, whatever the fuck they did is causing problems and his doctor is pissed off at him for going to a Chiropractor in the first place.
I have a similar anecdote, my sister's father-in-law had back problems, but his back was healing. Then he went to a chiropractor, who managed to fuck his back up even worse.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
