I appreciate the straightforwardness of the video. They're not saying that they are curing anything, but are inline with preventative maintenance for your body. It helps my back and knees.

"Subluxation", the theoretical basis for all of this. This, by definition, means a joint that is visibly displaced. If you have a subluxation, you are not moving your spine or joint, you are likely in extreme pain, and at risk for nerve damage up to permanent paralysis if you move wrong or someone does something to you wrong. *Chiropractors do not work on subluxation*, it requires physical therapy or surgery. Chiropractic has commandeered the term, using it incorrectly. Chiropractors work on joints that are not visibly displaced, but may not be in an ideal position, condition, or are receiving too much strain. This is not subluxation. Facet joint syndrome, tendonitis, and arthritis are a few examples of conditions a chiropractor will treat. What they do in person cannot significantly change the function of something, but may feel better temporarily. This part gets close to massage therapy. A good chiropractor will immediately work on diagnosing the cause of the problem and leave you with recommendations and/or tools to change your behavior and heal your joints and tissues. If the problem persists and your chiropractor does not recommend or require you to see a physical therapist, get a new chiropractor.

When I was 8 years old, my chiropractor pretended that he knew what was wrong with my body.
He put a hand on my knee, closed his eyes, and said "yes. your problem is in your back. Your spine is S-curved."

I had a broken pinkie toe.

Even as someone who has done a lot of research about the human body, recovery, and nutrition (I'm a diabetic survivor), I still learned a great deal from this video of things I've always suspected, but had never heard so clearly put into words before. Thank you for making this video for our community. 😊🌎💖

History of chiropractors is pretty wild, I live in the town of one of the founders, "Daniel palmer". He had one of his first clinics in port perry, and he fixed someone being deaf fixing his spine. So ya, totally legit for sure. Facts just side with chiropractors, they do be legit

[JokersHangout]

I bet most of the hate comments are from people in the medical field in the medical field or related to the medical field or pharmaceutical industry lol The fact is it doesn't cost a paying bills to fix everything

I had excellent experience with Chiropractors. I would go to a chiropractor before I go to a spine surgeon 😢

[notlisztening]

100% health, huh? Well he wears a tie, he's gotta know what he's talking about

[tgmcface]

The fact he doesn't use the word muscle once gives you an idea of how biased his opinion is.

[MinecraftMaster]

Wow We Have That Many Nerve Roots in Our Body

The educator looks like the lead from Twin Peaks 😍

A Chiropractor is someone who converts convincing uneducated words and popping gas from joints into money ... over and over again for the same patient.
