What is the difference between do and md and chiropracter?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Significant: Md's and do's have full medical and pharmaceutical training and can address most illnesses with scientifically proven regimens. Chiropractors operate under an outmoded and disproven theory of spinal "subluxations". They can offer a sometimes comforting deep massage but cannot properly diagnose disease and certainly cure nothing.

DO: Chiropractic came to its founder in a dream from the spirit world. MD + DO training is based on modern science where every theory is tested and rejected if not proven. Very rigorous standards. Medicine is constantly evolving and whenever new evidence appears it is included in the regimen.
