What do doctors think about chiropractors?

6 doctors weighed in across 3 answers

Chiropractics: Unlike a common belief that many of those are quacks, i believe that there are conditions that can be treated with success by chiropractors such as muscle spasms and minor usually muscle related issues. I've had my neck cracked by my wife and it did help. The most important thing is to find one who knows what he is doing.

Mixed: Chiropractic seems an attempt to provide care based on osteopathic approaches with incorporation of zen techniques and occasionally entrepreneurial salesmanship. Skills vary sharply and standards are also different in various offices. That being said, and having reservations about many practitioners, I do have close friends who are chiropractors and are very effective.
