Hehehe, CAM has only one principle.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Perhaps that is because many medical professionals would like to avoid manipulating the spine if at all possible?
On the other hand

There are controls in place which prevent such treatments from being leveraged in mainstream medicine. A treatment that has not yet had it's effect proven may be leveraged in a case study, and the participants must be willing after having been informed of the nature of the treatment (that is obviously here, in the US, though things slip through the cracks).
Much more slips through the cracks is my point Rhythm. Your mainstream medicine is staffed by overworked and underpaid people who make mistakes (same here in Oz) Your mainstream medicine is governed by a central body that has no thought for the individual practitioner let alone the individual patient. Your mainstream medicine is costly because of litigation and insurance and the fact that while mainstream medicine is a slave to the pharmaceutical companies those said companies are able to manipulate the govt and the medical mainstream to conduct their "field trials" for them. how many drugs have been recalled BECAUSE ordinary people have complained (Bitterly) to the authorities??
No I do not revere the men in white coats..like our politicians they are just as suspect in my view; and I wouldn't take that page you offered as gospel either .
To do so is to make medicine, science, and politics as religion ...something they were never meant to be.

Mainstream Medicine™ makes mistakes so we should appeal to magic?
Demanding that treatment be proven and understood is religious?
Agree to disagree.

On the other hand
Ever had your spine manipulated??
I have and it is wonderful!!  No pain!! Bliss!!
What I am saying is that I DID go to a certified medical practitioner and all I got was a fucking gonorrhea test (he did NOT adress my asthma, nor my posture, nor my menopause, nor my systemic fungal infection, nor the viral infection)... oh no he sent me for a fucking gonnorhea test ! (this from your "certified mainstream medical" practitioners??) Suffice to say I didn't go back there, but someone suggested that perhaps I might benefit from a visit to their Chiropractor. I don't swallow blindly the "benefits" of such a practice BUT what I am trying to say is that in SOME cases Chiropractic is what is needed and the fact that "mainstream" is so down on it in favour of pharmaceuticals is a disservice to the patients and potential patients.

Like I said, agree to disagree. It's your personal healthcare, you make the decisions. You could have had a physical therapist or physician crack your joints if you asked.
