PSA: Chiropractors aren't doctors, they aren't better than any other "alternative" healer and at worse are conmen and can fuck you up permanently. Don't ever go to chiropractors.

I'm a paramedic. I had two patients in my fifteen year career who experienced a broken spine from a chiropractor (different chiropractors), which is more than I saw some rare conditions like Steven Johnson Syndrome (antibiotic reaction that causes immune system burns) and cavernous sinus thrombosis (caused the lady's eye to pop out of her head). Also dated a girl whose mom worked for a chiropractor, the guy constantly insisted he could cure- not treat, cure- type 1 diabetes with vitamins and spinal adjustment.
