Chiropractic is fake science

There are people that actually take their infants to get adjustments. I just think that's weird. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yes and there's a lot of deaths associated with it.

Yeah, not sure which is more fucked up though: a parent seeking an adjustment for their infant, or a chiropractor willing to perform one. Two words:

Chiropractic does have an evidence-based fork nowadays. It's a discipline that was founded in quackery, but unlike say homeopathy which has no plausible mechanism of action for treating anything other than dehydration, certain chiropractic treatments can provide relief for the conditions treated (though not by rebalancing humours, obviously). They are pretty much glorified physical therapists at best tho.

Chiropractors can be anywhere from full quack to legit. There's no point smearing the entire discipline the way you would do with naturopaths or homeopaths, even if its history is grody.

Good post I can agree with that.
