I mean, the chiropractor is technically correct. You'll say goodbye to a lot of things, including IBS.

Cured of all ailments, including the terminal STD known as "life."

So, ibs has an unknown cause, right? Does it persist indefinitely in donated organs or does it eventually subside? I might have it, albeit undiagnosed, so I got curious as I’m an organ donor

You might be left with only IBS. In a hospital bed and not able to control your bowels.

visited a friend's family reunion and met his chiropractor uncle. dude said he could cure diabetes and cancer.

he could barely pronounce diabetes. I will never ever understand chiropractor quackshit.

I understand chiro quack shit the same way I understand crystals and essential oils quack shit. It’s all just quack shit.

What I don’t understand is why insurance actually pays for chiro, at least sometimes.

In most cases, it seems like temporary relief. Like when your bigger, older brother picks you up and cracks your back. Feels great in the moment, but not a long-term fix.

i was in the hospital and just had had a few major organs removed. like, hours before. a chiro i had never met but who went to the same cult as my parents walked into my hospital room unannounced and started lecturing me about how i would have been able to keep my organs if i'd let him give me a spinal adjustment.

my friends, a chiropracter was saved by an orderly that day.

Regularly scheduled warning but chiropractor is not a real doctor and can paralyze you for life. You would receive equal or better results with massotherapy.

Also the guy who invented it learned the practice from a ghost during a seance

You can also go to a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) who is an actual doctor and will crack your back in scientifically backed ways.

Is that another name for physical therapy?

Back in my old city, which has a large Chinese population, I went to a physical therapist a few times for a hurt back. The staff didn't really speak English, but it was covered by workers compensation so I gave it a go. Those people were absolute magicians, I tell ya. I'm not exactly sure what they were doing, as I was almost always laying face down, but I'm pretty sure it involved needles, and they definitely did some electroshock therapy, but boy did it work great. I just let them do their thing, and it really seemed to help along the healing process.

[-] Aeri@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Massotherapy is like deep tissue massage and stuff. If I understand correctly it's basically just really advanced actually medical based massage that people get licensed for. I'm just going off of memory though you might get better mileage out of actually looking it up.

I had a bit of back gain and I went to a chrio once and this tiny Asian women beat the living shit out me. I swear she elbow dropped onto my spine. It made my back so sore I was unable to move for 3 days. I called to tell them it had gotten significantly worse and they replied that means its working come back for another session. I never returned and it healed up perfectly fine.
