It baffles me that anytime anyone simply tells the factual historical events that led to the foundation of chiropractic, people get offended and militant. These people seriously behave like cultists. If you feel that this is a "hit piece" and all it contains are historical accounts, maybe you should examine why facts about chiropractic feel negative. And your anecdotes about people feeling better don't change the fact that it is based on an idea which came from a "hunch" from a very unscientific person, at a time when medical science was severely lacking. And if you want to cite opioids as evidence that "adjustments" are a safer route. That's like saying that playing with matches while soaked in gasoline is safe because taking a bath with a toaster is dangerous. It's completely nonsensical. Stop getting upset with people for giving true accounts of history. If you're a believer of chiropractic, you have to own those facts. Being offended and naming other things that are bad doesn't change the facts.
I don't know if you ever have post concussion syndrome or migraines I would look into upper cervical chiropractic it's legit it saved my bacon. The atlas bone in your neck basically holds up your entire head and weighs only two ounces and if it gets knocked out of place you can have all kinds of neurological issues because the entire central nervous system runs right down the middle of it.
I am not a proponent of chiropractery but the real origin is there used to (and still is in many parts of the world) a folk medical practice of "bone setting". Medical science back then was no more advanced than chiropractery and classical medical doctors, surgeons, barbers, bone setters and herbal healers all were around and were considered different medical disciplines. You can imagine the need for a bone setter in your village if you dislocated a shoulder or broke a bone where no doctors were around. Chiropractery absolutely came from the very ancient bone setting traditon with a modernizing twist. I disovow it cures anything and it is more of a pain relief like masage therapy. I don't go to a chriopracter but I get tension right between my shoulder blades and stretching and cracking my back makes me feel better after.
There are so many things wrong with this I don’t know where to begin. If you’ve never been to a chiropractor you owe it to yourself to go to one and see what you’re missing out on. I can’t tell you how many patients a week I hear say they wish they had come in sooner or had chiropractic care earlier in their life.
Placedo crap. Pass the MCAT, Go to medical school, a residency, and a fellowship to become a real medical doctor. Then, compose a study that shows chiropractic adjustments cure/treat some ailment better than placebo. With all the positive feedback you're getting, it sounds like it shouldn't be hard at all. But you'll never do that because you can't. Because chiropractic is NOT a better treatment than placebo.
Where did DD Palmer say he got the idea about chiropractic during a seance? I know he mentions the said doctor, and he also met with him (when he allegedly healed his wife), but does he anywhere say that the principles of chiro was revealed during a spiritualistic encounter? (no worries, I'm not into defending or promoting chiropractic, but this video seems biased and misguiding... But I'd like to learn more - if you can guide me to the sources? )

Accounts from other witness on the scene seems to recute that he was ran over abdvthe courts agreed. Irionically his death probably has more to due with his doctor treating his typhoid fever with the treatments palmer invented
A classic story of infighting in the Chiropractic Profession. Members of a competing college made the story up. A court trial was ordered and BJ was exonerated. The fact that DD Palmer soon after traveled all the way back to Los Angeles, California and contracted Typhoid Fever certainly favored BJ Palmer’s innocence. DD Palmer’s official death certificate signed by a Medical Examiner, half way across the country pretty much cleared up the confusion. Ironically, DD Palmer, Chiropractic’s first and most notable antivaxxer, died of a vaccine preventable disease at the time of his death. Whoops.
Doctor actually means teacher in latin...DD may have been weird but I bet he could teach any of todays medical doctors more about the anatomy of the body than the professors at Med schools today. Why learn about the body when there is a pill for every ill.

It's not just lack of regulation, there are still schools that teach the "philosophy of chiropractic" instead of evidence based care
