most doctors in your city/state can't/refuse do anything about your problem

There's almost nothing a chiropractor can do if doctors aren't treating you. Except lie and steal your money.

The thing is, placebos can actually be pretty effective. Hell, they're effective even if you know they're a placebo. And the more elaborate and similar to what you think would be involved in curing you, the more effective. So people going to chiropractors might actually be getting real results even if the things they're doing are junk.
