I need something clarified by someone who doesn’t go to a chiropractor and never has.
Why would somebody who’s never been to a chiropractor be the best person to ask whether or not it’s bullshit? If this is how you find out if something is true, you’re gonna be in for a rude awakening, and probably sooner than later.
Being free from confirmation bias doesn’t make you an expert, though. Their opinion could be influenced based on something they heard or all kinds of other things that have no bearing on whether or not it’s true.
The woman claimed basil essential oil could be used in place of: ibuprofen, hand sanitizer, soap, and a few other things.
That’s right, not only was she a chiropractor; she was an essential oil salesperson.
Snake oil. Chiropractors are snake oil salesman, no different from TCM peddlers. I think TCM peddlers are actually, at least in the U.S. where you can’t sell water that’s had dead animals fermenting in it, better because acupuncture won’t permanently damage you. It just gives you that nice placebo.
I’ve gone once due to hip pain. He cracked my back then went through some range of motion stretches with my leg, basically the same shit I did before football practice every day. Go to a doc or physical trainer in sports medicine, chiros are a waste of money and potentially dangerous.

Because of confirmation bias.
If everyone who goes to a chiropractor says it’s good but all evidence says otherwise then I need an outside opinion without the confirmation bias.

Yeah I worded it wrong initially.
Someone who’s gone and didn’t say it was good would still be able to give me a better frame of reference.
