You know what really drives me, what keeps me at it? The thought that if I didn't, one of my mouth-breathing siblings would.
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!

I don't mind doing it, just haven't figured out if I'm willing to risk the result.

The point, Kichi, is that however licensed or registered a chiro is, the only treatments that they can offer that have been shown to have an effect are offered elsewhere. The vast majority of treatments available amount to no more than cracking bones at random hoping for the best. I sure as hell hope that if a country actually allows people to crack bones for the shits and giggles of it, they'd better be familiar with anatomy.
That being said, why is it that non-chiros rarely offer to crack your spine to cure a common cold? You may be dealing with an entirely different chiro industry on your side of the pond. Never forget that..lol. Alternative therapies are alternatives for a reason.

My chiropractor is/was a licensed medical professional. He's not one of those quacks that say that chiropractic is a cure-all.
He sure as hell fixed my neck that had pained me for years however.

Good for you. Could have gone to a physical therapist. I'm aware that chirpractors are "licensed", and they do indeed work in medicine. Doesn't take med school, or nursing school does it. One of these things is not like the other.

I probably could have. I am pretty happy with the end result though. My neck was in bad shape & he had me to where I could turn my head again in a week. Back to normal in a couple of months. Aside from going to the ER, I wouldn't have even been able to see a "normal" physician or PT inside a week of my injury. (My neck had hurt for a good long while, but sleeping wrong on it one day was the proverbial last straw). Honestly, I was skeptical as hell going in, but pain can be a great motivator to try new & exciting things.
Also, If you are going to using time spent in school as a ruler, mine had 3 years of undergraduate school before spending almost 4 more getting his D.C.
A PT is a two year program where I live. RN is three.
