I have a couple of chiro experiences:

- First one- I go in because of back pain. After 3 days of adjustments the pain still isn't much better. Get the old "this is a lifetime maintenance thing- not a quick fix" speech. Went to a massage therapist and was 90% better after my first visit, and 100% after my second one.

- Second one- in my building there is a massage/chiro place. I book a massage there. In the standard paperwork to fill out there is a waiver the want me to sign; that I will not ever seek malpractice against them. I ask about this and they try to tell me that it is standard. I forget the exact wording, but it waived any claims against everything including incompetance.

It all seems like a scam to me; like ear candling in the 90's.
