Wow, you twist words better than most attorneys!
Now, what I was asking for (and what neither you nor any of the other chiropractic apologists here have provided) is scientific evidence that chiropractic is effective for anything. If it is not (and it isn't, but hey, these are entertaining discussions), then there is risk exposure sans potiential benefit. As for "chiropractic is minimal treatment when compared to medications and surgery" I suppose that is true - but the same could be said for faith healing or psychic surgery. Fact is that none of these things has been shown to work. And yes, medication is given to aid the body in healing, I won't debate that point. My question is - does chiropractic help the body heal? The answer is NO. Can chiropractic hurt the body? The answer is YES. The conclusion? Chiropractors are an unwarranted health risk.
"A doctor is nothing without the healing powers of the body." Absolutely the most true thing said on SDN in a long time. The prolouge? "A chiropractor is nothing without marketing!"
