So why is he a chiropractor? Seriously. Why isn't he a massage therapist (equally bogus in regards to claims of long-term efficacy) or a physiotherapist.
Talk to any chiropractor long enough, and you will find a quack hiding beneath the surface.
Studies have shown that even having another person put their hands on you, and talk to you can have a similar placebo effect.
Oh, and in the "it happened to me" file, a chiropractor broke one of my brother's back, and the problem had to be fixed with major surgery. The chiropractor had no clue why my brother was beset with crippling headaches, and neurological pain in his lower legs, he just recommended another 6 months of treatments.
