I went to a chiropractor with severe lower back pain. He told me the bones in my pelvis were out of alignment and could only be manipulated rectally. Of course I was skeptical at first but I went ahead with the treatment because it was covered by insurance. Mostly it felt like an aggressive prostate exam. After about 50 treatments I did start to feel better. I never did figure out how he was able to keep both his hands on my shoulders during the treatments.
I've read many good reviews about chiropractors, so me having upper back pain decided to give it a try. On the first visit the chiropractor said my spine is the issue, even tho I have brought MRI reports indicating no issues with the spine. After a couple of visits with no improvements I decided to see a physio therapist, which he immediately discovered that my back ribs are causing the pain. However I still went to my next session to the chiropractor, I mentioned that its not the spine it was the ribs which he replied: Yes I know, we are trying to fix it" so I said: but you told me its the spine? His face went red and I decided to never go back there again. A liar and a thief.
In 2017 I broke my back, herniated 2 disks and fractured a vertebrae jumping a concrete spillway on my dirtbike. Couldnt move my right leg at all, i dont like calling it paralyzed but idk what else to call it- Went to a chiropractor, he immediately ordered an MRI, went over the direction of my disk bulge, explained deeply why it hurts my leg so bad and was a little too honest about how bad the injury was. I shit you not man my first session I needed to basically be carried in to his office, by session 5 I was standing up straight and didn’t need to Uber anymore (could drive again), was 80% physical therapy and 20% “adjustments”. You cant denounce all chiropractors, many of them are physical therapists that call themselves chiropractors because people are turned off by the term “physical therapy”.
When my back is messed up, I can get adjusted, by the time I get back out to my car it goes out again. So you could legitimately need an adjustment at the next office.
@ebulating have you never been adjusted. all they do is move the joint around, they say this. they send the joint through a range of motions, its like stretching, doesnt work if you dont do it regularly. most of us sitting down all day long causing weird compression and stiffness, we are not meant to sit that long. when your tendons become stiff you have to stretch when your joints become stiff you must bend or else itll stay that way.
No one has been able to confirm exactly what makes that popping sound. I asked my physical therapist and he said that its most likely “crepitation” so it could be trapped gases popping I guess? If you know more.. please share!
Fitness With Jeremy Shelton ya they need to have a chiropractor in the show there way wrong , and coming from joe who I thought was a athlete but apparently he only kicks bags he doesn’t do any hard labor that would wear a disc out, so he doesn’t have a clue really i crab fish on the ocean stack the biggest heaviest pots In the harbor on are boat and trust me when I say me and many crab fisherman go to chiropractic care and acupuncture and Massages are regular for anyone who crab fishes . All of these are really good for you if you work hard labor or fight for a living are your a athlete. Ya a physical therapy is really good also I would say go to therapy before having surgery most cases therapy will fix it surgery should only be a last decision sometimes it’s necessary. Remember if your lower back or neck or hip is thrown out a place it’s going to throw other things out of place and make you more unhealthy so what Joe is saying is very wrong chiropractic care will line you back up, straighten you out you , with that and physical therapy together remember you have to strengthen the weak part again after you fix it, really it’s common since don’t see how people don’t get it or understand it if you’ve gone through real pain in your life , and some real hard fights , you know chiropractic care is very good, relieves pain helps to straighten you back out
Dan Limbach It wouldn’t be hard- find the top guy in the country and ask him to come on the show. It happens to be the top podcast, they would certainly do it.
I have respect for these people, but from my own personal experience with a friend who experienced his spinal cord being crushed, no level of surgery or regular medical intervention was able to help him from being nearly paralyzed. That was till he started going to a chiropractor who worked on him for about a year. He was eventually off all pain medication walking upright with very minimal issues afterward. None of the regular doctors could understand how he was able to walk again. There are absolutely a bunch of nut jobs and quacks in the Chiropractic industry it could even be most of them, but there's just too many cases where people got severe relief from going to one
Just starting to go to a chiropractor… hope it helps me. Ps: love your content man. Visited my friend in Ohio and I found out he lives near your area.. told that boy he better get into real estate 😂
now, imagine an alternate reality where your friend did not go to that chiropractor for that whole year and instead he just rested and lightly exercised. would he have gotten better? probably! correlation does not mean causation. if chiropractic stuff was any useful, it wouldn't be too hard to prove its healing capabilities with some controlled studies. alternative medicine that works is called medicine. when an "alternative" technique/method is scientifically proven to be helpful, medicine adopts it into its repertoire.
@@MrPartch my wife has had huge benefit from going to a chiropractor for her hip and spine alignment issues. They took before and after X-rays and the difference is insane
@@MrPartch that doesn’t mean that the chiropractic therapy didn’t help that process. It could have sped it up or eased the pain that came along with it
Matt Thoink get off your high horse you bum, you ain’t contributing shit to the world but your bullshit attitude. Take a hit and relax~ you of all people need to open your mind and shut your mouth.
I hurt my neck playing football and after years of constant pain, I went to a chiropractor and he cracked my neck...it was fantastically life changing. I felt free neck movement for the first time in 3 years. It was life changing in a good way. I'm just a sample of one but it really worked for me.
@@dashriprock2916 a lot of people that get chiropractic care are overweight, old, out of shape, or generally unhealthy. it is common for these type of people to have strokes, and when they do it can be blamed on their chiropractor.
Doing jiu-jitsu, I've popped my ribs out a couple times a year. Going to the Chiropractor is like the only place to go to get them popped in. Anyone who has had a popped rib knows it's very painful. It feels like you can't breathe deep, feels like you're having a heart attack, and just the general pain and lack of mobility you have. The moment my chiropractor pops the rib back in... the pain and everything goes away immediately.
I was skeptical of chiropractic in the beginning but was encouraged to see one for neck and shoulder pain. I was on a program where I came in 2 times per week for a month. At the end of the first month my skepticism was 100% justified. Didn’t do a damn thing except lighten my wallet. I ended up having surgery and am now pain free.
This is the way. Always go to a licensed Medical Doctor, or a PT/Physio. And I'm happy for you that you are pain free! I have shoulder pain and it's no fun.
Surgery had really awful practices then too which is why surgery today is completely invalid as a health practice. That's just simple logic. The early astronomers thought the sun and planets went around the Earth which is why no astronomy today is valid.
sure but so is a lot of "medicine" now... things found in 1800's : Rene Laennec's Stethoscope, aspirin, blood transfusions, nitrous oxide for anesthetic, x rays, hearing aids, open heart surgery.... so... pretty amazing at it's time... and some, we still use today. :)
I went to a chiropractor for pretty bad lower back pain every year or so. Then a chiropractor put me on a roller table for 30 minutes. Haven't had lower back pain in 15 years. Worked for me!
@I'm Mikey A rib doesn't "tear away" in this case. A chiropractor is not usually looking for dislocation but a subluxation (less than dislocation). Yes, they can be seen on x-ray. Mostly they can be felt on motion palpation. The cavitaton (pop) occurs when a misarticulating rib is lined up correctly and the stress is taken out of the joint space. I have stacks of x-ray books from the classes that I was made to take. If I take an x-ray I am responsible for reading it and everything on it.
@Donny Smith False equivalency much? Just because you wouldn't understand the science behind legit chiropractors doesn't mean it would be a waste of *everyone's* time ;)
Agreed. Let them have a chance to defend their position. I know my chiropractor has helped me. And never once suggested that Chiropractic therapy negates the need for vaccines or drugs.
Shes one of those big mouth bimbos who knows nothing. A real doctor? Is there only a medical doctor? What about a dentist? Or osteopath? We are all doctors if we pass the school and exams. We have different functions. Joe you are wrong .
I have scoliosis and have dealt with pain for all my life, physical therapy helped a little but i eventually had to quit due to it being too stressful and time consuming, i started seeing a chiro for free as she was a family friend and genuinely wanted to help me, i went in every week for a month and it really helped, although I wasn't completely pain free it was a huge difference that lasted for a very long time, it's been about 2 years and only now the pain has started to get bad again. I can understand it not being for everyone and that it isn't a proven science but if you're desperate i think you should give it a shot
They do say it can help pain but unlike physical therapy doesn’t help remedy the root issue. Looking for quick fix is what leads people to see chiros for quack remedies
@@wwjccsd Your statement is more ironic than you know. If you'd like to understand why, search "Gonstead Chiropractic" on TH-cam. Dr. Rahim is a great place to start :)
@@wwjccsd It depends on how much the chiropractor knows. The good ones, which are the only ones anyone should ever consider going to and it is easy to tell who they are, will help relieve pain but also do so much more. They will X-ray you and look around at the spot that hurts but also above and below because one things always affects another. They will recommend building muscle there or stretching there more often. You can always deny the quack stuff and go to a different doctor. If they don't offer a 1st day physical interaction whether it's just stretching or an actual adjustment, then you're not at the right place.
Especially the part where costs used to be very reasonable but as tech and knowledge advanced costs rose to astronomical levels and it remained privatized in the United States. And if you are the unlucky winner of the medical lottery even a millionaire can go bankrupt in short order, even with insurance.
Yeah I'd agree, the difference is actual medicine has come a long way since the 1800s while chiropractic medicine hasnt. Real medicine is backed up by countless studies
Benjamin Asbury they are just now starting studies that show acupuncture is effective at treating certain conditions just because studies haven’t been done doesn’t mean it isn’t effective
@@Intravenous14 Many studies have been done that disprove the efficacy of chiropracty and other psuedoscience bullshit. How are you going to claim these studies have never been done? WOW
I had 4 surgeries and still had carpal tunnel pain for years. I started going to a chiropractor in 2000, and it changed my life. But, there are some charlatans out there that are all about making money.
Beni Zenteno Lol yes it’s your opinion or the highway. Never mind other people’s experience. You have a mindset that contributes to a lot of problems in the world, sorry.
Eh, I don’t know. I tweaked my back one time doing deadlifts and was sore for days. Went to a chiropractor, who was also a bodybuilder, and had him adjust my lower back and it worked wonders. He also instructed me not to use an “over/under grip” because people tend to favor one side and twist when pulling the weight up off of the ground. He didn’t bullshit me, he didn’t promise any miracle cure, he simply adjusted my lower back and gave me some simple advice from one weightlifter to another and it worked great for me and I haven’t had any issues since. Believe me, I was skeptical because when I was researching lower back relief and chiropractors, I came across all the bullshit and how divisive a topic it seemed to be. I told myself I’d give it a singular chance and I’m glad I did because I was very happy with the result.
I hurt my back at work and was literally hobbling. Seen a chiro who did an adjustment with the hand tool and was walking normal right after it. There are dodgy people in all jobs but I still swear by a good chiro.
I tweaked my neck at work and it persisted for a few days. Maybe a Chiropractor wasn't the best choice, but i'm pretty clueless when it came to doctors. When i saw the local guy, he had a quick look and straight up said "Look, i think you just pulled a muscle. Chiropractic work isn't gonna do anything for that" . I definitely appreciated the honesty
@@BapiBoozle for most people it's a real problem every time they pull a muscle... they know they will be in pain and maybe not able to move for hours maybe weeks., it's the pain that most people have a problem with.
@@BapiBoozle chiropractors tend to permanently disable or even kill people when forcefully cracking the neck. the neck isn’t supposed to do that. When they crack your neck it’s similar to you getting in a car accident. So it very well could potentially permanently injure you. The chiropractor could have not wanted to take that risk on the neck.
All I can say is that it helped me. I smacked the mastoid bone on the back of my head, and my neck froze up. My Dad made an appointment with a chiro he knew. Three sessions and I was right as rain. To me, it's like a car with the front end out of alignment. You grind through tires. If your skeletal system is out of alignment, you grind through joints. The Chiro I went to never got into any of the other woo-woo BS!
Gary Lewis; You are so right!!! First off I'm going preface what I'm about to say by saying there are good and bad in ever profession; From chiropractors to mechanics, to lawyers and MD's and I've had good and bad experiences with all of those. Thankfully the 1st Chiropractor I meet was truly great, I'll explain about 7 years after I had moved away from living near his practice I slipped a disc in my low back, So I initially went to this guy he had referred me to a few years earlier, With him I would only get better to a point and be almost back to square one, So I got a referral to another Chiropractor and in my first appointment he does x-rays and tells my right leg is 14mm shorter than my left but doesn't really do anything to address that, So after seeing him for about 3 weeks and him using some gadget me. I say screw this go and see my old chiropractor and I will say it took a while my initial problem the slipped disc took about 4-5 months and he treated me by doing a number of things (he doesn't use gadgets like some do) 1st I got fitted with custom orthotics and a 14mm lift to wear in my right shoe and for about 4+ months I received traction and massage therapy and spinal manipulation IE regular adjustments but it took 4+ months before he was finally able to adjust my lower back and was pain free and no longer walking like a duck haha. I will add since I am at in tune with my body so to speak and I have a problem I'll know if I need to see a chiropractor. Also being physically active I know what exercises and stretching to do to keep from having problems, I also try get regular massage as well. I will also add that a lot of professional sports teams have Chiropractors on there staff. Chiropractic education is a LONG WAY from it's origins!!!. Bill Philips founder of EAS supplements and publisher of Muscle Media Magazine did a very in depth article on Chiropractic and the depth and breadth of there education. Foot Note Body builder Franco Columbo was/is a Chiropractor Jack Lalane practiced chiropractic but didn't But didn't let it be known early in his career/life because of the stigma that still followed it back then.
I am 34 years of age and the first time in my life I had a issue in my upper back, neck, scapula after doing shoulder shrugs. I thought I over did it, and after day 7 the pain moved around in the upper region, and actually started affecting my sleep on day 7. It simply felt like some needed popped, therefore I made an appointment for a chiropractor. After home remedies of having my wife walk my back, using a foam roller, trying everything to simply relieve tension or pressure, nothing work. I sought a chiropractor, explained my situation, and within 15 minutes the pain was relieved and felt that tension removed. He gave additional adjustments, but concluded this was a simple adjustment and no further appointments was needed unless the symptoms continued. No issues since.
I had a similar experience when one of my ribs popped out in my back after tossing my kid up in the pool. Felt like my back was broken, haha! Could barely breathe after it happened and after a couple days of that crap I finally went to get adjusted at a walk-in clinic. They adjusted me and I instantly felt relief. I asked him if I would need to come back and he said "Nah, just be careful with it." I've had some problems here and there, but nothing like that. Would definitely go back if it happened again, though. This lady pins all chiropractors as some crazy cult that all believe in what that original guy did. From what I've seen, it's not the case at all. Lot of great people that just want to help others not be in pain. Most of them work directly with primary care Dr's and physical therapists as well. Maybe things are changing in the chiro world.
I’m 26 yr and in a similar situation but have been dealing with it for almost a year now. The pain has made its way to my chest muscles and that started affecting my sleep tremendously. I booked an appointment with a very experienced chiropractor yesterday and after the first appointment I already feel a massive release. I’m not 100% yet but I’m confident after a few more adjustments and a plan to get me back in shape I will make a full recovery.
@@josephmonrroy1877 yea idk what that was about, I'm skeptical of chiropractics from my own experience but never heard of them ever claiming the ridiculous stuff she kept bringing up. Weird hill to die on right?
I had crazy back pain in high school due to a broken bed and a heavy back pack and slouching (6 feet tall and overweight) so half of my senior I spent going to a chiropractor in my city after school and it did help. I didn’t slouch any more and my lower back pain went away (it was so bad that I couldn’t even stay in my seat during class, I had to go for walks) so maybe I’m just an outlier but it worked for me. Unfortunately, the job I got after high school was labor intensive and my boss didn’t care and I didn’t know how to lift heavy stuff and I ended up throwing my back out and I have had back pain ever since. I haven’t gone to a chiropractor for it but if I had the time I would.
If you had seen a physical therapist who actually worked with you to fix muscle imbalances and poor posture it probably would have helped more. And as they said chiros can help with back pain but it doesn’t necessarily fix the underlying causes
To be fair it was due to those sham deadly medicines that made them regulated as eff now. People complain about modern drug medicine right now but back then they sold you straight up poison and called it a healing elixir.
Thats why joe and the chick are pissed. Coz the chiropractors now especially the top college for it acknowledging his achievements which might be 100% BS instead of starting from scratch with actual research and testing. And i can understand where theyre coming from.
Interesting. At least, chiropractors that I've been to worked with radiologist or DPT. They were more helpful than general physicians who just prescribed bunch of drugs.
You say "who just prescribed bunch of drugs" as if they just randomly picked names out of a hat. That's not how it works. Those "bunch of drugs" are designed to treat your condition(s), and it's a whole lot better than fooling around with your spine for a few minutes and declaring you "cured".
@Mik Wri It sounds like you need to be on a few of those meds yourself. Doctors spend YEARS studying human physiology. Take your irrational conspiracy theories elsewhere.
@@icemachine79 lmfao. Your bullshit is showing. We're going through a crisis of doctors overprescribing meds RIGHT NOW. Medical errors are the 3rd leading cause of death, but no, doctors spend YEARS studying human physiology, so they can't ever be wrong. And yes, they don't pull shit out of a hat. "Oh this med didn't work? Let's try this one. Nothing? Ok, on to the next -lam, -pam, -pine." Doctors get kickbacks to prescribe meds and treatments. That's illegal? I forgot, people never do illegal things. By the way, studying human physiology for "YEARS" does not equal studying how medications effect human physiology. They don't even understand how the mechanism of action works for most of the drugs they prescribe. They do a study and find that the problem went away in 70% of the trial users and then ship it to the market. Keep drinking the kool aid. Some of those fucks don't know a damn thing they're doing, and worse, some know exactly what they're doing.
I'm on the fence on chiropractors. Had really bad scoliosis when I was young, chiropractor fixed that, but some of the other things they do I really question.
fair call, my chiro doesn't charge me extra for anything, gives me free sessions and tells me if i dont think its working dont feel bad for not coming again. thats why i trust mine
The amount of times I’ve hurt my back, neck, or knees from football or weightlifting is countless. I used to ride these injuries out but then decided to go to a chiropractor. I’ve seen the evidence, my injuries were healed at tremendous rates every time. It’s not hard to pick at the idiots of a given field and portray that as the field.
It's based on bullshit and not science. If you're one of those goofy people that believes in Santa claus and religion then keep going fam but they can do lots of harm.
I don’t get it, my chiropractor got rid of my headaches, he fixes my neck and I’m happy. I have had no issues with my guy he’s great. Fixes my back and shoulders as well.
The problem is that because it's not accepted by the AMA, there isn't as much standardization and training that happens before they're certified. There was a big antitrust lawsuit the AMA because of how they treated chiropractors. What we need to do is accept that there are real benefits that can occur from chiropractors but they need better training in order to offer those benefits more consistently. A chiropractic technique was what reversed my hiatal hernia, something that doctors said wasn't possible without surgery. It's totally changed my life and I am hugely thankful to them for it
@Cream Cheese you're right that I still have a bit of GERD, but chiropractors reversed my hernia (through free content), while my doctors told me I would need surgery or live with it for life, which would probably give me stomach or esophageal cancer later on. That's shit advice and now my hernia is non-existent and has been for months. I used to get reflux multiple times a day, had difficulty swallowing, pain in my chest, shortness of breath, pain in my back, abdomen, panic attacks that sent me to the ER. After the self adjustment and other dietary advice from chiros, I have NONE of those symptoms aside from a bit of tenderness in my sternum when I don't take some acid with my last meal. The medicine and advice docs gave worsened my symptoms and would have made me dependent on something that was actively damaging my body. Even if my hernia comes back I can just do the adjustment again. I no longer have to watch what I eat and avoid all acidic or spicy food,I don't need to use an incline pillow to sleep on at night,I don't have to avoid meals after 6pm, I can take naps after eating - these were all things I had to avoid or do when I was listening to advice by doctors, and my life was shit and my GERD was so much worse! People they think the medical industry is the ONLY way to find healing. Well after many visits to the doctor for various ailments, I've realized that they are good at managing symptoms, NOT healing or curing. I've often been prescribed medicine that EXACERBATED my condition or gave me new problems! This is what happens when healthcare and pharmaceutical industry kickbacks are so closely related. I will still visit doctors but i will no longer take their word as gospel, because they've been wrong when working with me so many times. The worst part is that the medical industry convinces people that they are doomed and need to take pills their whole life, or get organs removed, when in reality for many conditions there are a host of other treatments you can try first that may well produce the healing you're looking for
At 21 years old, I messed up my back on a deployment doctors absolutely failed me and wanted to just constantly shove drugs down my throat, I could barely walk or sleep for 2 years. MRIs, Xrays, all they could say was I had a herniated disc and too bad, I could have surgery on my back and it "might" fix it. Had some cortisone shots. Then I went to a chiro, who looked at my xrays and said oh look at your L4/L5 etc, within 5 treatments I was a new person.
Same. I injured my back in hs and my osteopathic sports dr who x-rayed me just loaded me up on codeine for 1 month. I lived with chronic back pain for years until one day in college I was offered a free adjustment. It’s like I was reborn! Not only was a sonogramed, my Chiro showed me why I am in pain, what she will do about it and also how the rest of my body was compensating and in contestant tension on some muscles. After three visits, my back pain disappeared, my headaches and fatigue too. Decades later, after running a lot, my hip gave out on me. I went to go see a doctor in Miami. She suggested I go see a chiro first, and if that doesn’t work, come back to discuss expensive and invasive hip surgery, at 33yo... after two session I was back running. So come tell me chiropractors don’t work! This lady is just making shit up and rogan read one article and sounds like people who claim psychology is a pseudoscience based on some errors, mean ignoring the fact that it was psychiatrist MDs who performed the invasive lobotomies.... I also had my ears popped by a chiro once too and my gf said I have since stopped grinding my teeth...

I been going to a chiropractor for a year, and I love it, always puts me into a great mood and relieves my migraines. All the doctors would do is prescribe meds.
And yet you still have to go month after month. Doesn't sound like they are curing anything. You're getting a good massage and an environment that gives you the placebo effect. That's it.
Scott Miles well due to all the intense labor I put up with on a daily basis. Yea I have to go in every month to get readjusted. Meds are no different, plus the nasty side effects you can possibly get.
Ah yes cracking your back can relieve migraines, that doesn't even make sense thats like getting a liver transplant and it fixes your heart arrhythmia it literally shouldn't work sorry op 10 out of 10 placebo effect here
This is like what people do/claim with essential oils. There is a time and place but people will always try to use things to take advantage of others and promote themselves. I never really thought chiropractors were legit but my wife had sudden neck and rear skull pain so bad it would cause her to almost pass out or throw up. She couldn't stand or be upright for longer than 30 min and couldn't turn her head. We went to 2 different ERs and a family doctor. They all did scans and tests and came back negative. They gave her pain meds and told her to just take it easy and to come back if it didn't go away in a few weeks. After two months they scheduled a neurologist for 2 months later but in the meantime she saw a chiropractor twice a week. She was back to normal before the neurology appointment so we cancelled it. She just does a maintenance visit to the chiropractor once a month now. I don't blame people for being skeptical or not trusting chiropractors....but in this case the doctors failed.
a chiropractor fixed my lower back issues. that's all I know. went to standard doctors for a year. was taking muscle relaxers and injections, just short term help.
im surprised to hear that. out of all the therapies I have spent thousands of dollars on.. I can say chiropractic work was a waste of time. accupuncture = great, massage = crucial.
I was just thinking the same thing. He knew what was up with me within just a few seconds of looking and I was only slightly out of alignment. He's very experienced, talented and knowledgable.
Kyle Vander Syde Clip saying Chiropractors make false claims gets angry response from someone making false claims. Perfect. This lets me know they’re on the right track.
As a chiropractor, I understand about the history of chiro. It has a checkered past, but so do all healing techniques, including medicine. The original theories of chiropractic are obviously debunked, but there are chiro's like me who really understand the spine and how it works and how it can go wrong. And then it's important to utilize techniques and procedures that are scientifically sound and make sense. There are crazy folks in every profession. You simply have to find a chiro who is science based and uses traditional chiro/physical techniques that actually work and help. Just don't put all chiro's in the same camp and through the preverbal "baby out with the bathwater". Just a thought Joe from a BIG FAN!!
@MT even in medicine it is a problem. Until robots replace theses works you are always expose. Some people go to the hospital for a minor thing and end dead because human error.
The plural of "chiro" is "chiros". No apostrophe. Apostrophe makes it a singular possessive. Then it's "throw", not "through", and "proverbial", not "preverbal". How to know which chiros are science based? Don't they all think it's science, no matter what they believe? How can we distinguish which ones follow actual science and which ones follow chiropractic pseudoscience? And wouldn't a science based chiro just be a physical therapist? Why waste time trying to figure out if a chiro follows real science instead of just going to someone who finished medical school and definitely does?
I love my chiropractor - I mean why are you going to a chiropractic? Will it cure cancer? No, but it definitely helps with posture, proper muscle and bone usage.
@@Giggidygiggidy12 Then why did going to the chiropractor 3 times help A LOT with my posture and neck pain? I went to a physical therapist and she gave me some great exercises which I still do every day, they definitely help. But my neck pain only completely went away after I also went to the chiropractor like 6 weeks later, and he also went in depth about which parts of my body I should focus on stretching more often so it doesn´t happen again. So going to a PT and listening to her helped, but so did going to a chiropractor and listening to him. Of course you have to follow instructions and keep taking care of yourself after a visit. Just going for an adjustment won´t do anything, just like the massage I got from the physical therapist didn´t just make the pain disappear, I had to keep doing the exercises she gave me every day, just like I had to keep doing the stretches the chiro showed me. But you can´t tell me that going to a chiro didn´t work for me because I still couldn´t really sleep that well even after 6 weeks of doing the exercises, and then I slept for 14 hours after I went to the chiro
Hm. I was in a car accident that left me with neck and back pain. Regular doctor told me to take pain meds and sleep it off. Nothing went away. Went to a chiropractor who just cracked my back and neck. Pain was instantly gone.
@@Daniel-pr2tp good chiropractors stimulate muscles that aren't normally activated using electrodes to help the imbalances causing the pain, then massage these areas deeply, then stretch out the joints and cause spinal decompression. Then they will give you lists of stretches with demonstrations that are specific to your problem. There is science backing all of these things when it comes to recovery its not placebo buddy but sure keep shitting on people trying to maintain there bones.
I also distrust doctors. I was told I needed surgery for my herniated discs with no assurance that it would actually feel better. I did my own at-home physical therapy, and I am completely pain-free. I saved thousands and thousands of dollars.
For the first time in a long time I finally worked a full week with no pain. No meds no shots just a weekly adjustment and rehabilitation exercises with the nursing staff.
I just came back from my first chiropractor session after two years of hesitation and having a mid right side of my back pain and aches flare up at the end of every day from doing demolition. He identified the bulge on my back without asking, used some shock therapy to decrease inflammation and in one swift movement cracked the exact point causing the pain. I literally felt my disc rotate back into place. Shit took my breathe away, couldn’t help but look stupid and smile while trying to catch my breathe. The release was intense and even got my temples pulsing. 10/10 going back for a follow up.
@@jeffcarpizo03 No man, you really gotta listen to all of what they are saying. At least twice they both agreed. If they just said they can help back issues and neck issues it wouldn't be a big deal because there is some slight scientific foundation there. It's when they make wild claims for example (you don't need vaccinated because of an adjustment, will solve pancreas or other organ issues). These have no scientific backing and have been tried and studied for years without any signs of it correlating.
@@Famousbird54 I agree they did say that but those crazy claims aren’t what all or even a majority are claiming and the whole video is about them and therefore making the whole thing fraudulent. There are mainstream medical practitioners who do things off the rails but we won’t ever say all modern medicine is BS.
If he did a 'special podcast' or some other broadcast on this subject with 'experts' on both sides (if that is even possible)....this would be incredible to watch!!!
I went to an emergency room. They said I had psyatica . I thought great. No big deal. I'll ice and go see a chiropractor. My chiropractor measured my hips and knew it wasn't sciatica. So the Drs. At the hospital misdiagnosed me. My chiropractor set up my MRI found me a nuerologist and I needed immediate surgery. I shattered my l5 s1 disc. Basically the biggest shock absorber in your body.
Nice, chiropractic can be very useful , but like any other field, you can have docs who are trained as good as others and hence people have a wide variety of experiences. Tons of good ones out there who practice eevicence based chiro ….
My wife couldn't walk for several months. A chiropractor restored her back. The doctors wanted to do a surgery that would of only partially restored her mobility. It's not all bullshit.
The body heals it self. I still have back issues from parachute jumps, chiro didn't do the job for me. Massage therapy made the pain go away. I'm only one guy though.
I'm a massage therapist and lemme tell ya the massage should be covered under chiropractic. Sometimes when I stretch people necks and other parts I pop them because once the muscles relax the joint will fall in place easily or easier than before. I've taken old ladies off walkers and helped singers hold their notes longer. Waitresses and bartenders with shldr and neck issues. Yet insurance wont cover me? Its absolutely ridiculous
@@DurtyBuhks IMO massage therapist, chiropractic and physical therapy should be under same roof. Ive had best results with getting care from each one. Ive got arthritis in low back, 2 bulging discs in neck. If I dont maintain, ill get neuropathy in left arm so bad I cant sleep. When I get to treatment from these on a consistent schedulen i get little to no pain. Every person I know who has had back surgery is not better for it. And I am a person who isnt shy about seeing MD when its needed.
@@teufelshunde4 they ARE under the same roof!...just not in America. In eastern medicine BODYWORK is the general term for anyone who manipulates the joints and muscles to create balance. Western medicine separates us all so we are forced to go thru extensive schooling. I'd be 35 by the time I got my massage lisence chiro and PT lisence and I'd be 100k plus in debt if not more. Its ridiculous
Sarah Star yea I don’t like the blatant negative rhetoric posed toward chiropractors lol. There are definitely some quacks out there but that doesn’t take away the fact that they have given me more relief than ANY “real” doctor ever has in my life lol. Can’t discount them THAT much if they’re giving you tangible results
Phantom Alpha wow it just shows how anecdotal they are, which inherently isn’t that great of a science you’re right. All I’m saying is there are plenty of good results from them so not to discount them entirely or claim ‘they’re all bullshit’ when clearly the ones who fix people aren’t
This was covered in the video, they accept that the one thing that chiropractic manipulation has the potential to do is relieve pressure from damaged nerves. It is the other outlandish claims they have a problem with. More to the point, if you need this kind of issue dealt with then there are better-trained, properly qualified physical therapists who can both fix the nerve issues and design correct exercise recovery programs to help prevent a recurrence. Certainly, the medical profession is imperfect and continually updating itself, but there are literally professionals who help people to walk again after horrific injuries and surgery. I'd rather be treated by them than someone who is poorly trained in a field with little to no evidence of its assertions.
Might as well healed by itself. Funny thing is here in Europe) Germany /Austria) chiropractor means something subtlety different. Afair it is not complete bullshit like in USA, it's only 30ish% bs.
Same. I had sciatica for years, took 3 weeks of treatment, and had no more back pain. After years of agony. Chiropractic techniques work. Period. Don't care how it was invented....it saved my life.
I visited a chiropractor twice after my right shoulder shifted 2 inches lower than my left in a work accident. He explained exactly what was wrong and what he was doing to fix it, now I’m good
@@Okilian_tv actually I gave myself a scoliosis, twisted my pelvis, knotted my lat and pulled my trap. My chiro did a lot of deep tissue massage and small adjustments and years later I have no noticeable effects from the incident. Without aide I would certainly by now have serious problems.
Love Rogan, love his podcast, am a data-based decision maker in my day-to-day life. I'm a huge fan of massage therapy. I'm a huge fan of acupressure-based treatments.... but NOTHING has been able to help short-term issues with my neck/upper back/mid back more than the treatments rendered by a specific chiropractor I go to. That's all I know. No horse in this race... that's just my person experience!
Rory JP they’re is no supporting data for chiropractic. Especially when it comes to reading xrays. They have no clue what they are looking at. They’ve been tested. They fail miserably every time. Radiologist read and interpret xrays and mris. They are also medical doctors Chiropractors are playing make believe.
I think the issue with Chiropractic is that - unlike homeopathy - you can't really do a bulletproof double blind study that proves it's BS. So, it's entirely plausible the manual manipulations the Chiropractor does actually has a beneficial effect. However, it doesn't change the fact that unlike massage and physiotherapy its underlying theories are clearly complete nonsense.
Erik ROSSEN th are you talking about. ? Of course you can. They’ve been done. Chiropractors can’t even read xrays. They’ve tested them. They fail every time. They do studies on chiropractic care. It’s total bunk. And you said it. If they are doing pt then they aren’t doing chiropractic and they aren’t doing pt right because they aren’t trained PTs are. If they want to be OTs they also need to put in the extremely hard work it takes to become that. Chiropractic and naturopathy has zero barriers to entry. They’re acceptance rate is 100% You have be qualified to be one a PT or and RMt. Chiropractors aren’t qualified to do anything yet they call themselves doctors. It’s the biggest scam going for over 100 years. Same with naturopathy. These losers have not earned doctorates. They are a farce. An embarrassment And I’m glad it’s all finally being exposed.
I went to physical therapy for almost 3 years for pinched nerve in my neck never did get better, had pain down my left arm from my neck to my wrist, had to lay down some days it hurts so bad. Went to a chiropractor 5 times to get adjusted all the pain stopped.
It blows my mind that these two can recognize that massage has health benefits, but then refute the potential of joint displacement, or misaligned bone structures from impacts and accidents, causing pain or bodily issues which are fixable without downing endless drugs or getting sliced up on a table.
Yup, I had my left arm tingle for three months. My chiropractor took X-rays and showed me exactly where it was pinching the nerve. After a week of it went away, and then for 5 more weeks I went back once to make sure it didn't move back. Then we took another extra and then area that was pinching was straight again. 🤷♂️
jeremy r I have the same thing. Pain and numbness down my left arm. But mine started shortly after I started a chiropractic regimen for "general wellness". I was fine before I started going to the chiropractor. I switched chiropractors twice, hoping that I might get a chiro who knows what he's doing, but neither of them were able to help me. All they did was take my money.
@@Steve197201 they helped me, you might want to research the chiropractors you go to, also there are certain ways you shouldn't turn your neck or do certain things until 24 hours after the chiropractor has adjusted you it can just throw it back to where it was. Or go to the pain clinic they gave me some shots that helped out it numbed the pinched nerve in my neck but would wear off after a few months
I trained a client who went chiropractor for 2 years with hip issues and reduced her hip pain in 3 months with exercise modification. The plan was just balanced and improved flexibility of the psoas group
I was a bricklayer for 25 years.. for the last 12 years I've had moderate to excruciating lower back pain. Been to WAY TOO MANY physios and masseurs and they have only given temporary relief. A workmate recommended his chiro and after 8 visits I feel awesome! I highly recommend " Gonstead chiropractic"!
@@williammunny6061 I don't have one..that's why I wasted so much time and money on physios.. glad someone pointed me in the right direction - To a chiropractor...
I had severe headaches and I really thought I was dying so I had an mri and it turned out negative for any problems. My family doctor suggested I see a chiropractor to my surprise so I did and BOOM ... never had a headache since
Aidan Brynjelsen im not taking sides here but there is 0% you can tell if that is “simply consequence”...weird you can be so sure with no evidence of anything about this person at all lol
Tension headaches are a thing, your muscles reach way up your skull and everything is connected so having severe muscle tension could reasonably cause headaches in my opinion
Same thing happened to my mother. Her migraines were bad enough where she would make her room completely dark and put her pillow over her head. One adjustment and they were gone. That was 20 years ago.
I have had this before. I can be prone to migraines and sometimes they do not go away. When the neck or upper back is out it can put pressure on the nerves and cause muscles to not rest correctly. This can cause tension in the lower head/neck area and cause irritation with the nerves in the neck. I have a father who is a D.O. and he would check my spine before giving me a message and adjustment. When pressure is relieved from that area it can allow the body to get out of the loop of having a headache/migraine.
I know a chiropractor and she said that there are two kinds of people in her field. The ones who want to fix your back aches. Then there's a people who think everything that goes wrong with the body is because your back isn't aligned properly.
@@terminatorgir the degree is Doctor of Chiropractic.... no matter how worthless you or I think they are. And I think they are worthless as well. There are probably PhDs in gender studies. Those people would still be doctors. It's a degree. Doesn't have anything to do with medicine or Healthcare.
@@gpcivil8807 no one said Chiros are medical doctors, or have PhDs. There are other doctorate degrees that do not fit into the MD or PhD category. It is not a requirement to be one of those two to have a doctorate degree.
I had brutal back pain all my life. My chiropractor didn't just pop my back. She'd dig into my muscles, stretch me as well as adjust. It's comprehensive. I don't believe just cracking bones will help but that lady alleviated my pain.
There is a science and highly skilled art to what you refer to as; "cracking bones" It is called Spinal Manipulation and is scientifically proven to be quite therapeutic on it's own.
@@groovy56 There really isn’t beyond anything a massage/physical therapist could do besides placebo. Unless you mean triggering locked-in-syndrome lmao
I'm a painter and my right side is usually a mess. For a long time I had the worst pain and was taking those 800mg liquid gels. My neck on the right side was like I had a swollen knot and it would never release. My lower back hurt on the right side and was also sore and swollen and my leg had sciatic pain all the way down the leg. The pain was squeezing tears out of my eyes. I eventually had enough and tried a chiropractor. I only went a week and he 100% fixed me. I had some kind of a pinched nerve. He used to crack my spine up high between my shoulder blades that used to hurt the first few times. He also did my hips and neck. I haven't been back for a year now and haven't had the pain return and we still work our asses off on the line.
@bo bo My last disc that is closest to the tailbone was being pinched he showed me on the x ray. When I was in my teens got in a scuffle a guy kicked my legs out from under me and I fell ass first onto the concrete. That hurt for a long time and I think that contributed to my later pain plus my slouching. I'm 6'2 and always had bad posture. Maybe some type of soft tissue rehab could fix it too but he fixed it just the same so it can't be said that it doesn't work. I think Joe is way off here just like he was way off when he said the Whopper isn't a good burger lol. Joe the shill! Hehe.
@bo bo good that they fixed it up. I was gonna say it's probably good to go for a tune up now and again but not all the time. For me anyways and some co workers do the same tune ups.
I have a slipped disc in my back and have suffered terrible pain for the last 24 years, at some times it hard to even walk...if it wasn't for my chiropractor I would have put a bullet in my brain years ago. It works for me 100% no doubt.
@B. L. Exactly! More conservative treatment like physiotherapy may take months to show benefit, but there are lots of people achieved full long-term recovery from disc injuries through proper physiotherapy.
I suffered with a severe neck pain a few years ago. I couldn't even sleep lying down, had to upright on the couch. Tried lots of painkillers, visit to the doctor, x-ray etc. Nothing helped. One visit to a local chiropractor, I was sorted. Slept in my bed that night.
My chiropractor was amazing. He helped my back pain with stretches and strengthening exercises. I have had horrible posture my entire life and this helped fix that.
I love joe rogan, but most of his fan base worships every word he says. There is a ton of evidence supporting why chiropractic medicine is so helpful. They are minimizing what chiropractors do and I’m not sure what the reasoning is
@@423olive Weird. I have to read up on the legality of chiros doing stretches and strengthening. Must be a state to state thing. PTs are also able to do adjustments
That was just an accident though. When you go to a real medical physical therapist you get actual, real medical treatment that's proven to work. Not something that someone's just trying out to see if it works, and it just so happens to work. You might have felt better faster with a real doctor.
@@ChristelVinot how do you know I hadn’t already visited a doctor ? They just sent me off with prescriptions and a follow up .. and they try scaring you with what it could be ... do you keep buying meds. I didn’t take any of their meds and feel great since my chiropractor visit . It was almost instant relief .. but if you say so 😏
@@joselostx Yeah that's what I said. They are accidentally right sometimes. I'm not sure why you're acting like you just disagreed with what I said. It seems we agree.
Had a fusion l4-l5. Afterwards, living hell for 1.5 years. Went to a chiropractor and in one visit, “pop”, and no more pain. I owe him my life, cause I was thinking about taking it!
Having your back cracked after a spinal fusion is really risky. If one of those metal parts fusing your vertebrae together had popped out you'd be in a world of shit.
Matthew Velasquez u haven’t been in real pain you can’t suck it up, no one ends their life if they could suck it up they would, ur truly a disrespectful idiot
Point of view from a chiropractors son. I’ve known many chiropractors and haven’t met any that claim to fix hearing or anything crazy. Not saying there isn’t some out there. Just like preachers, I’ve never met a crazy one that claims to heal people by touching them. But there are some weirdo preachers that claim to heal people while they scream and flip around on the ground. Along with weirdo chiropractors that claim they can fix anything with an adjustment. In a lot of professions there will be a few extremist people. The entire idea of chiropractic, Atleast now, and this is what I love, is that you go to the hospital for back pain and they give you a pain pill but that doesn’t fix the problem only the symptom. Where as you go to a chiropractor and they try a more natural way to fix the back pain then just giving pills. I love medical doctors, I also love chiropractors. They both have advantages and disadvantages. They look at problems in their own way, which is the way they were taught to. I don’t discredit any chiropractor or MD, DO, most are actually in it to help people. Also one more thing that most people don’t know. Chiropractors go to college the same amount of time as a medical doctor, 8 years, in that time they study the exact same stuff but leave out prescription medicine. They both receive an undergraduate degree, receive a 4 year healthcare degree, obtain state and National license by passing the exam. The Doctor of Chiropractic focuses intensively on anatomy, physiology, and human biology. They must continue to pass education requirements every year to keep their license. They both study anatomy/embryology, biochemistry/chemistry, diagnosis, neurology, microbiology, public health, physiology, pathology, obstetrics/gynecology, orthopedics, psychology/psychiatry, and X-ray. Both have to have over 500 hours of manual medicine training. While DC’s study 2x as much Anatomy, MDs study 3x as much public health. DCs also don’t have to do a 1 year internship. But they still study/practice under other DCs for so many hours but they do it while still in school, don’t know the exact hour requirement. Total hours to become a Doctor of chiropractic 2,419 Total hours to become a Medical Doctor 2,047
I worked for a chiropractor for about a week. My second day there a new mother and her newborn came straight from the hospital spinal adjustments. The chiropractor also told me he could fix/cure any condition or disease in the body, just a few things he mentioned- aortic aneurysms, gallbladder disease, asthma......That was way back in 1985!
I went to someone with my dad when I was young who did the droplet medicine that was supposed to help with allergies and they tested it and fit it differently to every patient. They had a chiropractor too and were a fully booked nonstop busy place. I think the stuff about curing diseases, allergies, and other stuff like that is true because realistically, some of the symptoms from those diseases can be treated if you get enough of the proper vitamins which is what this doctor would prescribe. They're the Hult Clinic in Illinois if anyone wants to call them. I stopped a long time ago because I hate pills but they're stuff wasn't mood altercating, it was only vitamins and it can really help a lot of different issues.
Love you on every show I’ve watched till this. I never feel the need to comment but this pissed me off for 26 minutes.... Wish I could interject for all of 15 seconds? What about manipulation and cracking of limbs such as my arm? Is that not considered chiropractic? Last year I slept on my arm and woke up with an asleep arm. The tingly & numb feeling of that went away except on my pinky finger. This lasted for over 1 month (zero change) before I went to the doctor. 3 different doctors at UCSF looked at it and had no real suggestions. They told me they wanted to do a brain scan and other tests to determine if I have nerve damage... I luckily had scheduled my first ever (completely unrelated) chiropractic visit because I figured maybe I should get an “alignment” before I start lifting weights again. He asked me if I had any other issues, i told him about the numbness in my finger but didn’t legitimately think he could do anything about it.. i had been a chiropractic skeptic for a long time.... he performed some type of “cracking to my shoulder elbow and wrist area” .... 24 hours later the feeling in my finger was fully restored. Whatever he did worked and he went by the term chiropractor...
Yeah, one thing I'm starting to hate about Joe is he will have someone on and talk 100% on their side, and then sometimes he will have someone else on his show who is opposed to the first person and hes also 100% on their side. There's a lot of good to come out of these, and I almost understand why he does it, but its incredibly disingenuous.
My chiro is definitely different, she does not focus on adjustments that much, she mostly used massages and dry needling to help with the spasms in my back and she then showed me stretches and exercises that specifically helped those areas
My chiro doesn't call himself a chiropractor. He tells you the truth about what he's doing which is more of sports medicine by spinal manipulation and muscle release. He is goes to the gym religiously and knows how to help relieve muscle stress and joint issues. No bs when visiting him.
@@iwatchkittenvids45 Generally when a muscle is tight (due to posture, prolonged wrong positions, or lack of conditioning) it stays contracted or is used to staying contracted thats when problems arise. By various techniques such as massage, myofascial release, or medications, you "release" the muscles therefore relaxing it or putting it back to its original or supposed state.
Chiropractors say you dont need Vaccines. Joe: "Whoa whoa which chiropractor said that specifically?" I understand not *all* chiropractor say that but I swear I read that in an article.
Rocmario '96 🙏👍🎉🙌🏻👏🏽 yup it was deliberately said and many more,she has to show that doctor and with the evidence because she could be making those claims, and full of hate.
Not me canceling my chrio appointment today because it's expensive and I had a weird feeling about it to be honest, then this pops on my recommended. It helped at first but now I'm better from following up with caring for myself :) eating healthier and exercising.
idontgotnothin did you watch the video? Yes they did. They admit it can be effective to relieve back pain. They admit there are chiros who are good and are trying to help people. There’s also a shitload of them who are completely full of shit and are charlatans. Cannot deny that.
I have constant back pain, when I go to the chiropractor it helps immediately and for a few weeks I've heard this about chiropractors but I domt believe it because in my personal experience it actually helps, no I dont think its placebo I've done a lot of things for back pain
If you listen long enough a person will always reveal themselves to you. The guest said she went to a specific specialist and her back was killing her she needed a manipulation only to find out she had a broken rib. If this story is true then the question becomes what type of expert is she to not be able to recognize that she had an injury like that ? She basically disqualified herself right there.
This is so strange to me. I’ve been to several chiropractors and never experienced any of what they claimed in this video about voodoo pushy nonsense about healing all types of ailments. That’s freaking news to me that this is somehow a thing. Here’s my usual experience. My neck is misaligned because I sit at a desk and sometimes get too tense, I go to the chiropractor, they realign my neck, I pay $40, I ice and heat the area to handle inflammation and tense muscles, I go on with my life feeling great relief. I’m in and out in 5 minutes. This usually happens 2 to 4 times a year. Anyway, if there are quack chiropractors like they mentioned in the video and you happen to find yourself in their office you should probably just leave and find a new one.
Try and go in to your chiropractor and ask him to do what they say. If you go in with nexk they will "fix your neck pain" go in for vaccinations they will "fix your vaccination"
If your chiropractor doesn’t give you exercises to heal yourself they are a quack. Which is why you go back every couple months. Your neck is “misaligned” because of bad posture. Go to to a physical therapist, do the exercises they prescribe regularly, and get a more ergonomic desk setup. Never gotta go back if you keep up with your exercises.
Neck adjustments can cause vertebral artery dissection and vertebral artery dissection causes strokes. It's really rare from what I understand but people who get regular neck adjustments instead of just one are more likely to have a stroke. I think you should look this up for yourself then you can decide if the benefit is worth the risk. It's a rare complication so you might still think it's worth it.
Especially when you have someone who is part of a society who actually is chrio's mortal enemy ever since the chrio's called them out on their bullshit.
I was out of work with back pain that came out of nowhere. Went to the chiropractor and was 100% better in 4 easy treatments along with the easy stretches I was advised to do. I've never had a "real doctor" actually help me with anything. Just give a prescription and send you on your way.
R G Ree Here’s the thing. You giving anecdotal evidence that chiropractic worked for you is not how you prove chiropractic works. This has to be peer reviewed. And that means having people who know how to disprove a falsifiable claim. And since probability comes into play in this field, the results gathered have to be statistically significant. Thus multiple tests need to be performed following a strict and proven methodology. Unfortunately since the average person won’t be able to do that, we have to rely on accredited institutions that have proven to be credible, otherwise we could believe anyone with a degree from a diploma mill. And the reality is, the claims from chiropractic haven’t passed muster.

I went to a chiropractor with severe lower back pain. He told me the bones in my pelvis were out of alignment and could only be manipulated rectally. Of course I was skeptical at first but I went ahead with the treatment because it was covered by insurance. Mostly it felt like an aggressive prostate exam. After about 50 treatments I did start to feel better. I never did figure out how he was able to keep both his hands on my shoulders during the treatments.

I've read many good reviews about chiropractors, so me having upper back pain decided to give it a try. On the first visit the chiropractor said my spine is the issue, even tho I have brought MRI reports indicating no issues with the spine. After a couple of visits with no improvements I decided to see a physio therapist, which he immediately discovered that my back ribs are causing the pain. However I still went to my next session to the chiropractor, I mentioned that its not the spine it was the ribs which he replied: Yes I know, we are trying to fix it" so I said: but you told me its the spine? His face went red and I decided to never go back there again. A liar and a thief.
In 2017 I broke my back, herniated 2 disks and fractured a vertebrae jumping a concrete spillway on my dirtbike. Couldnt move my right leg at all, i dont like calling it paralyzed but idk what else to call it- Went to a chiropractor, he immediately ordered an MRI, went over the direction of my disk bulge, explained deeply why it hurts my leg so bad and was a little too honest about how bad the injury was. I shit you not man my first session I needed to basically be carried in to his office, by session 5 I was standing up straight and didn’t need to Uber anymore (could drive again), was 80% physical therapy and 20% “adjustments”. You cant denounce all chiropractors, many of them are physical therapists that call themselves chiropractors because people are turned off by the term “physical therapy”.
where are the ribs connected to? they make joints with the spine. did the physio fix your back finally?
So how did you end up fixing your problem?
I think you ask a chiro anything, the answer will always be "spine alignment."
@@joliecide clean your body first then go for adjustment
You can have a chiropractor "adjust" you, walk into another office and they'll tell you you need an adjustment.
Bingo
When my back is messed up, I can get adjusted, by the time I get back out to my car it goes out again. So you could legitimately need an adjustment at the next office.
@Mark Priest it feels good to get adjusted but there's just no research to say how it'll cure anything
100%
@ebulating have you never been adjusted. all they do is move the joint around, they say this. they send the joint through a range of motions, its like stretching, doesnt work if you dont do it regularly. most of us sitting down all day long causing weird compression and stiffness, we are not meant to sit that long. when your tendons become stiff you have to stretch when your joints become stiff you must bend or else itll stay that way.
If joints didn't make that gratifying popping sound, 99% of chiropractors would be out of business
No one has been able to confirm exactly what makes that popping sound. I asked my physical therapist and he said that its most likely “crepitation” so it could be trapped gases popping I guess? If you know more.. please share!

Fitness With Jeremy Shelton ya they need to have a chiropractor in the show there way wrong , and coming from joe who I thought was a athlete but apparently he only kicks bags he doesn’t do any hard labor that would wear a disc out, so he doesn’t have a clue really i crab fish on the ocean stack the biggest heaviest pots In the harbor on are boat and trust me when I say me and many crab fisherman go to chiropractic care and acupuncture and Massages are regular for anyone who crab fishes . All of these are really good for you if you work hard labor or fight for a living are your a athlete. Ya a physical therapy is really good also I would say go to therapy before having surgery most cases therapy will fix it surgery should only be a last decision sometimes it’s necessary. Remember if your lower back or neck or hip is thrown out a place it’s going to throw other things out of place and make you more unhealthy so what Joe is saying is very wrong chiropractic care will line you back up, straighten you out you , with that and physical therapy together remember you have to strengthen the weak part again after you fix it, really it’s common since don’t see how people don’t get it or understand it if you’ve gone through real pain in your life , and some real hard fights , you know chiropractic care is very good, relieves pain helps to straighten you back out
Good luck finding one who would do it.
Dan Limbach It wouldn’t be hard- find the top guy in the country and ask him to come on the show. It happens to be the top podcast, they would certainly do it.

I have respect for these people, but from my own personal experience with a friend who experienced his spinal cord being crushed, no level of surgery or regular medical intervention was able to help him from being nearly paralyzed. That was till he started going to a chiropractor who worked on him for about a year. He was eventually off all pain medication walking upright with very minimal issues afterward. None of the regular doctors could understand how he was able to walk again. There are absolutely a bunch of nut jobs and quacks in the Chiropractic industry it could even be most of them, but there's just too many cases where people got severe relief from going to one
Just starting to go to a chiropractor… hope it helps me.
Ps: love your content man. Visited my friend in Ohio and I found out he lives near your area.. told that boy he better get into real estate 😂
now, imagine an alternate reality where your friend did not go to that chiropractor for that whole year and instead he just rested and lightly exercised. would he have gotten better? probably! correlation does not mean causation. if chiropractic stuff was any useful, it wouldn't be too hard to prove its healing capabilities with some controlled studies.
alternative medicine that works is called medicine. when an "alternative" technique/method is scientifically proven to be helpful, medicine adopts it into its repertoire.
@@MrPartch my wife has had huge benefit from going to a chiropractor for her hip and spine alignment issues. They took before and after X-rays and the difference is insane

I was skeptical of chiropractic in the beginning but was encouraged to see one for neck and shoulder pain. I was on a program where I came in 2 times per week for a month. At the end of the first month my skepticism was 100% justified. Didn’t do a damn thing except lighten my wallet. I ended up having surgery and am now pain free.
This is the way. Always go to a licensed Medical Doctor, or a PT/Physio. And I'm happy for you that you are pain free! I have shoulder pain and it's no fun.
A lot of medicine in the 1800s were full of crap.
Surgery had really awful practices then too which is why surgery today is completely invalid as a health practice. That's just simple logic. The early astronomers thought the sun and planets went around the Earth which is why no astronomy today is valid.
sure but so is a lot of "medicine" now... things found in 1800's : Rene Laennec's Stethoscope, aspirin, blood transfusions, nitrous oxide for anesthetic, x rays, hearing aids, open heart surgery.... so... pretty amazing at it's time... and some, we still use today. :)
Damn. Leave it to a pokemon lover to not understand obvious sarcasm.
Great point. I was just thinking how at one time the medical establishment used leeches to treat patients, so I guess it's all just quackery too! 😉

I went to a chiropractor for pretty bad lower back pain every year or so. Then a chiropractor put me on a roller table for 30 minutes. Haven't had lower back pain in 15 years. Worked for me!
Thank you for proving it can work!!
My chiropractor changes my oil while I wait. So that's why I go.
@JD Rubble I agree. Exercise is also key for keeping your own back in alignment. Most of us tend to sit too much.
@I'm Mikey A rib doesn't "tear away" in this case. A chiropractor is not usually looking for dislocation but a subluxation (less than dislocation). Yes, they can be seen on x-ray. Mostly they can be felt on motion palpation. The cavitaton (pop) occurs when a misarticulating rib is lined up correctly and the stress is taken out of the joint space. I have stacks of x-ray books from the classes that I was made to take. If I take an x-ray I am responsible for reading it and everything on it.
@I'm Mikey Then why do I have my own x-ray machine, processor, and stacks of x-ray film??
Why don’t you discuss it with a chiropractor
yes
Or BOTH a "top chiropractor" and Steven Novella (or one of the key Science-Based Medicine site contributors) on the same one
@Donny Smith False equivalency much? Just because you wouldn't understand the science behind legit chiropractors doesn't mean it would be a waste of *everyone's* time ;)
Agreed. Let them have a chance to defend their position. I know my chiropractor has helped me. And never once suggested that Chiropractic therapy negates the need for vaccines or drugs.
Shes one of those big mouth bimbos who knows nothing. A real doctor? Is there only a medical doctor? What about a dentist? Or osteopath? We are all doctors if we pass the school and exams. We have different functions. Joe you are wrong .
I have scoliosis and have dealt with pain for all my life, physical therapy helped a little but i eventually had to quit due to it being too stressful and time consuming, i started seeing a chiro for free as she was a family friend and genuinely wanted to help me, i went in every week for a month and it really helped, although I wasn't completely pain free it was a huge difference that lasted for a very long time, it's been about 2 years and only now the pain has started to get bad again. I can understand it not being for everyone and that it isn't a proven science but if you're desperate i think you should give it a shot
They do say it can help pain but unlike physical therapy doesn’t help remedy the root issue. Looking for quick fix is what leads people to see chiros for quack remedies
@@wwjccsd Your statement is more ironic than you know. If you'd like to understand why, search "Gonstead Chiropractic" on TH-cam.
Dr. Rahim is a great place to start :)
@@wwjccsd It depends on how much the chiropractor knows. The good ones, which are the only ones anyone should ever consider going to and it is easy to tell who they are, will help relieve pain but also do so much more. They will X-ray you and look around at the spot that hurts but also above and below because one things always affects another. They will recommend building muscle there or stretching there more often. You can always deny the quack stuff and go to a different doctor. If they don't offer a 1st day physical interaction whether it's just stretching or an actual adjustment, then you're not at the right place.
Cant you fix that with a brace or am I just dumb?
Same story eveeyone has, "chriopractors helped me Im still going 3 years later" lol thats alot of money

And if you are the unlucky winner of the medical lottery even a millionaire can go bankrupt in short order, even with insurance.

Beni Zenteno Lol yes it’s your opinion or the highway. Never mind other people’s experience. You have a mindset that contributes to a lot of problems in the world, sorry.
Eh, I don’t know. I tweaked my back one time doing deadlifts and was sore for days. Went to a chiropractor, who was also a bodybuilder, and had him adjust my lower back and it worked wonders. He also instructed me not to use an “over/under grip” because people tend to favor one side and twist when pulling the weight up off of the ground.
He didn’t bullshit me, he didn’t promise any miracle cure, he simply adjusted my lower back and gave me some simple advice from one weightlifter to another and it worked great for me and I haven’t had any issues since.
Believe me, I was skeptical because when I was researching lower back relief and chiropractors, I came across all the bullshit and how divisive a topic it seemed to be. I told myself I’d give it a singular chance and I’m glad I did because I was very happy with the result.
I literally just gave a chiropractor a chance...

The Chiro I went to never got into any of the other woo-woo BS!
Thank you! I just went to the chiropractor and had a great experience too!
Gary Lewis; You are so right!!!
First off I'm going preface what I'm about to say by saying there are good and bad in ever profession; From chiropractors to mechanics, to lawyers and MD's and I've had good and bad experiences with all of those. Thankfully the 1st Chiropractor I meet was truly great, I'll explain about 7 years after I had moved away from living near his practice I slipped a disc in my low back, So I initially went to this guy he had referred me to a few years earlier, With him I would only get better to a point and be almost back to square one, So I got a referral to another Chiropractor and in my first appointment he does x-rays and tells my right leg is 14mm shorter than my left but doesn't really do anything to address that, So after seeing him for about 3 weeks and him using some gadget me. I say screw this go and see my old chiropractor and I will say it took a while my initial problem the slipped disc took about 4-5 months and he treated me by doing a number of things (he doesn't use gadgets like some do) 1st I got fitted with custom orthotics and a 14mm lift to wear in my right shoe and for about 4+ months I received traction and massage therapy and spinal manipulation IE regular adjustments but it took 4+ months before he was finally able to adjust my lower back and was pain free and no longer walking like a duck haha. I will add since I am at in tune with my body so to speak and I have a problem I'll know if I need to see a chiropractor. Also being physically active I know what exercises and stretching to do to keep from having problems, I also try get regular massage as well. I will also add that a lot of professional sports teams have Chiropractors on there staff. Chiropractic education is a LONG WAY from it's origins!!!. Bill Philips founder of EAS supplements and publisher of Muscle Media Magazine did a very in depth article on Chiropractic and the depth and breadth of there education. Foot Note Body builder Franco Columbo was/is a Chiropractor Jack Lalane practiced chiropractic but didn't But didn't let it be known early in his career/life because of the stigma that still followed it back then.
My brakes were squealing on my car, so I put earmuffs on. Totally fixed it!
And then your chiropractor f*cks up and your injured badly
@@Mysteriessss what
I am 34 years of age and the first time in my life I had a issue in my upper back, neck, scapula after doing shoulder shrugs.
I thought I over did it, and after day 7 the pain moved around in the upper region, and actually started affecting my sleep on day 7. It simply felt like some needed popped, therefore I made an appointment for a chiropractor.
After home remedies of having my wife walk my back, using a foam roller, trying everything to simply relieve tension or pressure, nothing work.
I sought a chiropractor, explained my situation, and within 15 minutes the pain was relieved and felt that tension removed. He gave additional adjustments, but concluded this was a simple adjustment and no further appointments was needed unless the symptoms continued.
No issues since.
I had a similar experience when one of my ribs popped out in my back after tossing my kid up in the pool. Felt like my back was broken, haha! Could barely breathe after it happened and after a couple days of that crap I finally went to get adjusted at a walk-in clinic. They adjusted me and I instantly felt relief. I asked him if I would need to come back and he said "Nah, just be careful with it." I've had some problems here and there, but nothing like that. Would definitely go back if it happened again, though.
This lady pins all chiropractors as some crazy cult that all believe in what that original guy did. From what I've seen, it's not the case at all. Lot of great people that just want to help others not be in pain. Most of them work directly with primary care Dr's and physical therapists as well. Maybe things are changing in the chiro world.
I’m 26 yr and in a similar situation but have been dealing with it for almost a year now. The pain has made its way to my chest muscles and that started affecting my sleep tremendously. I booked an appointment with a very experienced chiropractor yesterday and after the first appointment I already feel a massive release. I’m not 100% yet but I’m confident after a few more adjustments and a plan to get me back in shape I will make a full recovery.

I had crazy back pain in high school due to a broken bed and a heavy back pack and slouching (6 feet tall and overweight) so half of my senior I spent going to a chiropractor in my city after school and it did help. I didn’t slouch any more and my lower back pain went away (it was so bad that I couldn’t even stay in my seat during class, I had to go for walks) so maybe I’m just an outlier but it worked for me. Unfortunately, the job I got after high school was labor intensive and my boss didn’t care and I didn’t know how to lift heavy stuff and I ended up throwing my back out and I have had back pain ever since. I haven’t gone to a chiropractor for it but if I had the time I would.
If you had seen a physical therapist who actually worked with you to fix muscle imbalances and poor posture it probably would have helped more. And as they said chiros can help with back pain but it doesn’t necessarily fix the underlying causes

Interesting. At least, chiropractors that I've been to worked with radiologist or DPT. They were more helpful than general physicians who just prescribed bunch of drugs.
You say "who just prescribed bunch of drugs" as if they just randomly picked names out of a hat. That's not how it works. Those "bunch of drugs" are designed to treat your condition(s), and it's a whole lot better than fooling around with your spine for a few minutes and declaring you "cured".
@Mik Wri It sounds like you need to be on a few of those meds yourself. Doctors spend YEARS studying human physiology. Take your irrational conspiracy theories elsewhere.
@@icemachine79 lmfao. Your bullshit is showing. We're going through a crisis of doctors overprescribing meds RIGHT NOW. Medical errors are the 3rd leading cause of death, but no, doctors spend YEARS studying human physiology, so they can't ever be wrong. And yes, they don't pull shit out of a hat. "Oh this med didn't work? Let's try this one. Nothing? Ok, on to the next -lam, -pam, -pine." Doctors get kickbacks to prescribe meds and treatments. That's illegal? I forgot, people never do illegal things. By the way, studying human physiology for "YEARS" does not equal studying how medications effect human physiology. They don't even understand how the mechanism of action works for most of the drugs they prescribe. They do a study and find that the problem went away in 70% of the trial users and then ship it to the market. Keep drinking the kool aid. Some of those fucks don't know a damn thing they're doing, and worse, some know exactly what they're doing.

There was a big antitrust lawsuit the AMA because of how they treated chiropractors. What we need to do is accept that there are real benefits that can occur from chiropractors but they need better training in order to offer those benefits more consistently.

@Cream Cheese you're right that I still have a bit of GERD, but chiropractors reversed my hernia (through free content), while my doctors told me I would need surgery or live with it for life, which would probably give me stomach or esophageal cancer later on. That's shit advice and now my hernia is non-existent and has been for months. I used to get reflux multiple times a day, had difficulty swallowing, pain in my chest, shortness of breath, pain in my back, abdomen, panic attacks that sent me to the ER. After the self adjustment and other dietary advice from chiros, I have NONE of those symptoms aside from a bit of tenderness in my sternum when I don't take some acid with my last meal. The medicine and advice docs gave worsened my symptoms and would have made me dependent on something that was actively damaging my body. Even if my hernia comes back I can just do the adjustment again. I no longer have to watch what I eat and avoid all acidic or spicy food,I don't need to use an incline pillow to sleep on at night,I don't have to avoid meals after 6pm, I can take naps after eating - these were all things I had to avoid or do when I was listening to advice by doctors, and my life was shit and my GERD was so much worse!
People they think the medical industry is the ONLY way to find healing. Well after many visits to the doctor for various ailments, I've realized that they are good at managing symptoms, NOT healing or curing. I've often been prescribed medicine that EXACERBATED my condition or gave me new problems! This is what happens when healthcare and pharmaceutical industry kickbacks are so closely related. I will still visit doctors but i will no longer take their word as gospel, because they've been wrong when working with me so many times. The worst part is that the medical industry convinces people that they are doomed and need to take pills their whole life, or get organs removed, when in reality for many conditions there are a host of other treatments you can try first that may well produce the healing you're looking for
At 21 years old, I messed up my back on a deployment doctors absolutely failed me and wanted to just constantly shove drugs down my throat, I could barely walk or sleep for 2 years. MRIs, Xrays, all they could say was I had a herniated disc and too bad, I could have surgery on my back and it "might" fix it. Had some cortisone shots. Then I went to a chiro, who looked at my xrays and said oh look at your L4/L5 etc, within 5 treatments I was a new person.
Very similar experience but chiropractic did not work for me. Meditation saved my life.
Same. I injured my back in hs and my osteopathic sports dr who x-rayed me just loaded me up on codeine for 1 month. I lived with chronic back pain for years until one day in college I was offered a free adjustment. It’s like I was reborn! Not only was a sonogramed, my Chiro showed me why I am in pain, what she will do about it and also how the rest of my body was compensating and in contestant tension on some muscles. After three visits, my back pain disappeared, my headaches and fatigue too. Decades later, after running a lot, my hip gave out on me. I went to go see a doctor in Miami. She suggested I go see a chiro first, and if that doesn’t work, come back to discuss expensive and invasive hip surgery, at 33yo... after two session I was back running.
So come tell me chiropractors don’t work!
This lady is just making shit up and rogan read one article and sounds like people who claim psychology is a pseudoscience based on some errors, mean ignoring the fact that it was psychiatrist MDs who performed the invasive lobotomies....

They gave her pain meds and told her to just take it easy and to come back if it didn't go away in a few weeks. After two months they scheduled a neurologist for 2 months later but in the meantime she saw a chiropractor twice a week. She was back to normal before the neurology appointment so we cancelled it. She just does a maintenance visit to the chiropractor once a month now.
I don't blame people for being skeptical or not trusting chiropractors....but in this case the doctors failed.
a chiropractor fixed my lower back issues. that's all I know. went to standard doctors for a year. was taking muscle relaxers and injections, just short term help.
im surprised to hear that. out of all the therapies I have spent thousands of dollars on.. I can say chiropractic work was a waste of time.
accupuncture = great, massage = crucial.
How do you "know" that?
CarnalKid because chiropractors are frauds.
Janola Bleach You might wanna reread this comment chain, buddy. I asked how the original poster could "know" that a chiropractor fixed their back.

As a chiropractor, I understand about the history of chiro. It has a checkered past, but so do all healing techniques, including medicine. The original theories of chiropractic are obviously debunked, but there are chiro's like me who really understand the spine and how it works and how it can go wrong. And then it's important to utilize techniques and procedures that are scientifically sound and make sense. There are crazy folks in every profession. You simply have to find a chiro who is science based and uses traditional chiro/physical techniques that actually work and help. Just don't put all chiro's in the same camp and through the preverbal "baby out with the bathwater". Just a thought Joe from a BIG FAN!!
@MT even in medicine it is a problem. Until robots replace theses works you are always expose. Some people go to the hospital for a minor thing and end dead because human error.
The plural of "chiro" is "chiros". No apostrophe. Apostrophe makes it a singular possessive. Then it's "throw", not "through", and "proverbial", not "preverbal".
How to know which chiros are science based? Don't they all think it's science, no matter what they believe? How can we distinguish which ones follow actual science and which ones follow chiropractic pseudoscience? And wouldn't a science based chiro just be a physical therapist? Why waste time trying to figure out if a chiro follows real science instead of just going to someone who finished medical school and definitely does?
I love my chiropractor - I mean why are you going to a chiropractic? Will it cure cancer? No, but it definitely helps with posture, proper muscle and bone usage.
tosheatower no it really does not. Any adjustments you get from a chiro is temporary at best and dangerous at worst
@@Giggidygiggidy12 Then why did going to the chiropractor 3 times help A LOT with my posture and neck pain? I went to a physical therapist and she gave me some great exercises which I still do every day, they definitely help. But my neck pain only completely went away after I also went to the chiropractor like 6 weeks later, and he also went in depth about which parts of my body I should focus on stretching more often so it doesn´t happen again. So going to a PT and listening to her helped, but so did going to a chiropractor and listening to him. Of course you have to follow instructions and keep taking care of yourself after a visit. Just going for an adjustment won´t do anything, just like the massage I got from the physical therapist didn´t just make the pain disappear, I had to keep doing the exercises she gave me every day, just like I had to keep doing the stretches the chiro showed me. But you can´t tell me that going to a chiro didn´t work for me because I still couldn´t really sleep that well even after 6 weeks of doing the exercises, and then I slept for 14 hours after I went to the chiro
No a osteopath can do that not a quakapactic
Hm. I was in a car accident that left me with neck and back pain. Regular doctor told me to take pain meds and sleep it off. Nothing went away. Went to a chiropractor who just cracked my back and neck. Pain was instantly gone.

@@Daniel-pr2tp or more likely message and spinal decompression which happen during the chiropractor visit help with back pain
@@Daniel-pr2tp good chiropractors stimulate muscles that aren't normally activated using electrodes to help the imbalances causing the pain, then massage these areas deeply, then stretch out the joints and cause spinal decompression. Then they will give you lists of stretches with demonstrations that are specific to your problem.

I also distrust doctors. I was told I needed surgery for my herniated discs with no assurance that it would actually feel better. I did my own at-home physical therapy, and I am completely pain-free. I saved thousands and thousands of dollars.
Amazing!
For the first time in a long time I finally worked a full week with no pain. No meds no shots just a weekly adjustment and rehabilitation exercises with the nursing staff.
I just came back from my first chiropractor session after two years of hesitation and having a mid right side of my back pain and aches flare up at the end of every day from doing demolition. He identified the bulge on my back without asking, used some shock therapy to decrease inflammation and in one swift movement cracked the exact point causing the pain. I literally felt my disc rotate back into place.
Shit took my breathe away, couldn’t help but look stupid and smile while trying to catch my breathe. The release was intense and even got my temples pulsing. 10/10 going back for a follow up.

Everything here sounded bias. Medicine doctors can also be bad doctors
@@jeffcarpizo03 No man, you really gotta listen to all of what they are saying. At least twice they both agreed. If they just said they can help back issues and neck issues it wouldn't be a big deal because there is some slight scientific foundation there. It's when they make wild claims for example (you don't need vaccinated because of an adjustment, will solve pancreas or other organ issues). These have no scientific backing and have been tried and studied for years without any signs of it correlating.
@@Famousbird54 I agree they did say that but those crazy claims aren’t what all or even a majority are claiming and the whole video is about them and therefore making the whole thing fraudulent. There are mainstream medical practitioners who do things off the rails but we won’t ever say all modern medicine is BS.
If he did a 'special podcast' or some other broadcast on this subject with 'experts' on both sides (if that is even possible)....this would be incredible to watch!!!
Randy Sauder good idea
Yes it would be awesome watching chiros get ripped to sheds for their lack of scientific evidence.
I went to an emergency room. They said I had psyatica . I thought great. No big deal. I'll ice and go see a chiropractor. My chiropractor measured my hips and knew it wasn't sciatica. So the Drs. At the hospital misdiagnosed me. My chiropractor set up my MRI found me a nuerologist and I needed immediate surgery. I shattered my l5 s1 disc. Basically the biggest shock absorber in your body.
Nice, chiropractic can be very useful , but like any other field, you can have docs who are trained as good as others and hence people have a wide variety of experiences. Tons of good ones out there who practice eevicence based chiro ….
Disc or vertabrae?
My wife couldn't walk for several months. A chiropractor restored her back. The doctors wanted to do a surgery that would of only partially restored her mobility. It's not all bullshit.
Mike Adams placebo effect
The body heals it self. I still have back issues from parachute jumps, chiro didn't do the job for me. Massage therapy made the pain go away. I'm only one guy though.
I'm a massage therapist and lemme tell ya the massage should be covered under chiropractic. Sometimes when I stretch people necks and other parts I pop them because once the muscles relax the joint will fall in place easily or easier than before. I've taken old ladies off walkers and helped singers hold their notes longer. Waitresses and bartenders with shldr and neck issues. Yet insurance wont cover me? Its absolutely ridiculous
@@DurtyBuhks IMO massage therapist, chiropractic and physical therapy should be under same roof. Ive had best results with getting care from each one. Ive got arthritis in low back, 2 bulging discs in neck. If I dont maintain, ill get neuropathy in left arm so bad I cant sleep. When I get to treatment from these on a consistent schedulen i get little to no pain.
Every person I know who has had back surgery is not better for it. And I am a person who isnt shy about seeing MD when its needed.
@@teufelshunde4 they ARE under the same roof!...just not in America. In eastern medicine BODYWORK is the general term for anyone who manipulates the joints and muscles to create balance. Western medicine separates us all so we are forced to go thru extensive schooling. I'd be 35 by the time I got my massage lisence chiro and PT lisence and I'd be 100k plus in debt if not more. Its ridiculous
A chiropractor helped my mother so much with her sciatica for what it's worth. I believe it took about 4 weeks and before that she was barely walking.
Sarah Star yea I don’t like the blatant negative rhetoric posed toward chiropractors lol. There are definitely some quacks out there but that doesn’t take away the fact that they have given me more relief than ANY “real” doctor ever has in my life lol. Can’t discount them THAT much if they’re giving you tangible results
Phantom Alpha wow it just shows how anecdotal they are, which inherently isn’t that great of a science you’re right. All I’m saying is there are plenty of good results from them so not to discount them entirely or claim ‘they’re all bullshit’ when clearly the ones who fix people aren’t
jose guzman how do we have science that says sex is a social construct?
This was covered in the video, they accept that the one thing that chiropractic manipulation has the potential to do is relieve pressure from damaged nerves. It is the other outlandish claims they have a problem with. More to the point, if you need this kind of issue dealt with then there are better-trained, properly qualified physical therapists who can both fix the nerve issues and design correct exercise recovery programs to help prevent a recurrence. Certainly, the medical profession is imperfect and continually updating itself, but there are literally professionals who help people to walk again after horrific injuries and surgery. I'd rather be treated by them than someone who is poorly trained in a field with little to no evidence of its assertions.
Sciatica due to a bulging disc or tight piriformis muscle? Either can be relived by rest and massage. Chiropractors are quacks.
Chiropractor got me walking after an accident, and got rid of my sciatic nerve problems. Definitely helped here!
Lol bullshit
It's scientifically proven to be bullshit. Chiropractor do more harm than good.
Might as well healed by itself. Funny thing is here in Europe) Germany /Austria) chiropractor means something subtlety different. Afair it is not complete bullshit like in USA, it's only 30ish% bs.

Rory JP and you are delusional. Chiropractors rely on that.
Rory JP they’re is no supporting data for chiropractic. Especially when it comes to reading xrays. They have no clue what they are looking at.
They’ve been tested. They fail miserably every time.
Radiologist read and interpret xrays and mris. They are also medical doctors
Chiropractors are playing make believe.
I think the issue with Chiropractic is that - unlike homeopathy - you can't really do a bulletproof double blind study that proves it's BS. So, it's entirely plausible the manual manipulations the Chiropractor does actually has a beneficial effect. However, it doesn't change the fact that unlike massage and physiotherapy its underlying theories are clearly complete nonsense.
Erik ROSSEN th are you talking about. ? Of course you can. They’ve been done.
Chiropractors can’t even read xrays. They’ve tested them. They fail every time.
They do studies on chiropractic care. It’s total bunk.
And you said it. If they are doing pt then they aren’t doing chiropractic and they aren’t doing pt right because they aren’t trained PTs are. If they want to be OTs they also need to put in the extremely hard work it takes to become that.
Chiropractic and naturopathy has zero barriers to entry. They’re acceptance rate is 100%
You have be qualified to be one a PT or and RMt. Chiropractors aren’t qualified to do anything yet they call themselves doctors.
It’s the biggest scam going for over 100 years. Same with naturopathy.
These losers have not earned doctorates.
They are a farce. An embarrassment
And I’m glad it’s all finally being exposed.
I went to physical therapy for almost 3 years for pinched nerve in my neck never did get better, had pain down my left arm from my neck to my wrist, had to lay down some days it hurts so bad. Went to a chiropractor 5 times to get adjusted all the pain stopped.
It blows my mind that these two can recognize that massage has health benefits, but then refute the potential of joint displacement, or misaligned bone structures from impacts and accidents, causing pain or bodily issues which are fixable without downing endless drugs or getting sliced up on a table.
Yup, I had my left arm tingle for three months. My chiropractor took X-rays and showed me exactly where it was pinching the nerve. After a week of it went away, and then for 5 more weeks I went back once to make sure it didn't move back. Then we took another extra and then area that was pinching was straight again. 🤷♂️
jeremy r I have the same thing. Pain and numbness down my left arm. But mine started shortly after I started a chiropractic regimen for "general wellness". I was fine before I started going to the chiropractor.
I switched chiropractors twice, hoping that I might get a chiro who knows what he's doing, but neither of them were able to help me. All they did was take my money.
@@Steve197201 they helped me, you might want to research the chiropractors you go to, also there are certain ways you shouldn't turn your neck or do certain things until 24 hours after the chiropractor has adjusted you it can just throw it back to where it was. Or go to the pain clinic they gave me some shots that helped out it numbed the pinched nerve in my neck but would wear off after a few months

Aidan Brynjelsen im not taking sides here but there is 0% you can tell if that is “simply consequence”...weird you can be so sure with no evidence of anything about this person at all lol
Tension headaches are a thing, your muscles reach way up your skull and everything is connected so having severe muscle tension could reasonably cause headaches in my opinion
Same thing happened to my mother. Her migraines were bad enough where she would make her room completely dark and put her pillow over her head. One adjustment and they were gone. That was 20 years ago.
I have had this before. I can be prone to migraines and sometimes they do not go away. When the neck or upper back is out it can put pressure on the nerves and cause muscles to not rest correctly. This can cause tension in the lower head/neck area and cause irritation with the nerves in the neck. I have a father who is a D.O. and he would check my spine before giving me a message and adjustment. When pressure is relieved from that area it can allow the body to get out of the loop of having a headache/migraine.
I know a chiropractor and she said that there are two kinds of people in her field. The ones who want to fix your back aches. Then there's a people who think everything that goes wrong with the body is because your back isn't aligned properly.
Totally agreed. Chiropractic can totally help with your pinched nerve, but it probably won’t help your irritable bowel syndrome.

My neck on the right side was like I had a swollen knot and it would never release. My lower back hurt on the right side and was also sore and swollen and my leg had sciatic pain all the way down the leg. The pain was squeezing tears out of my eyes. I eventually had enough and tried a chiropractor. I only went a week and he 100% fixed me. I had some kind of a pinched nerve. He used to crack my spine up high between my shoulder blades that used to hurt the first few times. He also did my hips and neck. I haven't been back for a year now and haven't had the pain return and we still work our asses off on the line.

Point of view from a chiropractors son.
I’ve known many chiropractors and haven’t met any that claim to fix hearing or anything crazy. Not saying there isn’t some out there. Just like preachers, I’ve never met a crazy one that claims to heal people by touching them. But there are some weirdo preachers that claim to heal people while they scream and flip around on the ground. Along with weirdo chiropractors that claim they can fix anything with an adjustment. In a lot of professions there will be a few extremist people.
The entire idea of chiropractic, Atleast now, and this is what I love, is that you go to the hospital for back pain and they give you a pain pill but that doesn’t fix the problem only the symptom. Where as you go to a chiropractor and they try a more natural way to fix the back pain then just giving pills. I love medical doctors, I also love chiropractors. They both have advantages and disadvantages. They look at problems in their own way, which is the way they were taught to. I don’t discredit any chiropractor or MD, DO, most are actually in it to help people.
Also one more thing that most people don’t know. Chiropractors go to college the same amount of time as a medical doctor, 8 years, in that time they study the exact same stuff but leave out prescription medicine. They both receive an undergraduate degree, receive a 4 year healthcare degree, obtain state and National license by passing the exam. The Doctor of Chiropractic focuses intensively on anatomy, physiology, and human biology. They must continue to pass education requirements every year to keep their license.
They both study anatomy/embryology, biochemistry/chemistry, diagnosis, neurology, microbiology, public health, physiology, pathology, obstetrics/gynecology, orthopedics, psychology/psychiatry, and X-ray. Both have to have over 500 hours of manual medicine training.
While DC’s study 2x as much Anatomy, MDs study 3x as much public health.
DCs also don’t have to do a 1 year internship. But they still study/practice under other DCs for so many hours but they do it while still in school, don’t know the exact hour requirement.

I went to someone with my dad when I was young who did the droplet medicine that was supposed to help with allergies and they tested it and fit it differently to every patient. They had a chiropractor too and were a fully booked nonstop busy place. I think the stuff about curing diseases, allergies, and other stuff like that is true because realistically, some of the symptoms from those diseases can be treated if you get enough of the proper vitamins which is what this doctor would prescribe. They're the Hult Clinic in Illinois if anyone wants to call them. I stopped a long time ago because I hate pills but they're stuff wasn't mood altercating, it was only vitamins and it can really help a lot of different issues.

Love you on every show I’ve watched till this. I never feel the need to comment but this pissed me off for 26 minutes.... Wish I could interject for all of 15 seconds? What about manipulation and cracking of limbs such as my arm? Is that not considered chiropractic? Last year I slept on my arm and woke up with an asleep arm. The tingly & numb feeling of that went away except on my pinky finger. This lasted for over 1 month (zero change) before I went to the doctor. 3 different doctors at UCSF looked at it and had no real suggestions. They told me they wanted to do a brain scan and other tests to determine if I have nerve damage... I luckily had scheduled my first ever (completely unrelated) chiropractic visit because I figured maybe I should get an “alignment” before I start lifting weights again. He asked me if I had any other issues, i told him about the numbness in my finger but didn’t legitimately think he could do anything about it.. i had been a chiropractic skeptic for a long time.... he performed some type of “cracking to my shoulder elbow and wrist area” .... 24 hours later the feeling in my finger was fully restored. Whatever he did worked and he went by the term chiropractor...
Yeah, one thing I'm starting to hate about Joe is he will have someone on and talk 100% on their side, and then sometimes he will have someone else on his show who is opposed to the first person and hes also 100% on their side.
There's a lot of good to come out of these, and I almost understand why he does it, but its incredibly disingenuous.
My chiro is definitely different, she does not focus on adjustments that much, she mostly used massages and dry needling to help with the spasms in my back and she then showed me stretches and exercises that specifically helped those areas
My chiro doesn't call himself a chiropractor. He tells you the truth about what he's doing which is more of sports medicine by spinal manipulation and muscle release. He is goes to the gym religiously and knows how to help relieve muscle stress and joint issues.
No bs when visiting him.
What is "muscle release"
@@iwatchkittenvids45 i think that means you release the muscle
@@mr.marmot39 from what?
@@iwatchkittenvids45 idk im not a doctor hehe
@@iwatchkittenvids45 Generally when a muscle is tight (due to posture, prolonged wrong positions, or lack of conditioning) it stays contracted or is used to staying contracted thats when problems arise. By various techniques such as massage, myofascial release, or medications, you "release" the muscles therefore relaxing it or putting it back to its original or supposed state.
Lmao. What exactly does this scientist think 'deaf' means😂🤦🏼
"scientist" doesn't think deaf people can consent. LOL. WTF!
@@tomthebomb2715 how would a deaf person consent in the 1800s when he probably couldn’t read or know sign language?
Chiropractors say you dont need Vaccines.
Joe: "Whoa whoa which chiropractor said that specifically?"
I understand not *all* chiropractor say that but I swear I read that in an article.
Rocmario '96 🙏👍🎉🙌🏻👏🏽 yup it was deliberately said and many more,she has to show that doctor and with the evidence because she could be making those claims, and full of hate.
I was coming to mention the same thing... beating around the bush!
Not me canceling my chrio appointment today because it's expensive and I had a weird feeling about it to be honest, then this pops on my recommended. It helped at first but now I'm better from following up with caring for myself :) eating healthier and exercising.
One leg is "always" longer than the other, and have a dropped shoulder. No wonder I'm walking around in a circle.
Lma0!
They didn’t actually talk about anything chiropractors do.
idontgotnothin did you watch the video? Yes they did.
They admit it can be effective to relieve back pain. They admit there are chiros who are good and are trying to help people.
There’s also a shitload of them who are completely full of shit and are charlatans. Cannot deny that.
My chiropractor gave me a blowjob... I love chiropractors
@@cranjismcbasketball2118 danm I have to go then
@@omartovar2688 yeah she said it would make my neck feel better!
@@cranjismcbasketball2118 he?
I have constant back pain, when I go to the chiropractor it helps immediately and for a few weeks I've heard this about chiropractors but I domt believe it because in my personal experience it actually helps, no I dont think its placebo I've done a lot of things for back pain
If you listen long enough a person will always reveal themselves to you. The guest said she went to a specific specialist and her back was killing her she needed a manipulation only to find out she had a broken rib. If this story is true then the question becomes what type of expert is she to not be able to recognize that she had an injury like that ? She basically disqualified herself right there.
Exactly. Lol
This is so strange to me. I’ve been to several chiropractors and never experienced any of what they claimed in this video about voodoo pushy nonsense about healing all types of ailments. That’s freaking news to me that this is somehow a thing. Here’s my usual experience. My neck is misaligned because I sit at a desk and sometimes get too tense, I go to the chiropractor, they realign my neck, I pay $40, I ice and heat the area to handle inflammation and tense muscles, I go on with my life feeling great relief. I’m in and out in 5 minutes. This usually happens 2 to 4 times a year. Anyway, if there are quack chiropractors like they mentioned in the video and you happen to find yourself in their office you should probably just leave and find a new one.
Try and go in to your chiropractor and ask him to do what they say. If you go in with nexk they will "fix your neck pain" go in for vaccinations they will "fix your vaccination"
Yea some chiropractors are anti medicine and claim they can heal all with their chiropractic work. Those are the quacks to watch out for
If your chiropractor doesn’t give you exercises to heal yourself they are a quack. Which is why you go back every couple months. Your neck is “misaligned” because of bad posture. Go to to a physical therapist, do the exercises they prescribe regularly, and get a more ergonomic desk setup. Never gotta go back if you keep up with your exercises.
@@JoseAlvarado-zd3eh That's correct. I'm a flawed human.
Neck adjustments can cause vertebral artery dissection and vertebral artery dissection causes strokes. It's really rare from what I understand but people who get regular neck adjustments instead of just one are more likely to have a stroke. I think you should look this up for yourself then you can decide if the benefit is worth the risk. It's a rare complication so you might still think it's worth it.
I never trust such one sided conversations
Thank you.
Especially when you have someone who is part of a society who actually is chrio's mortal enemy ever since the chrio's called them out on their bullshit.
I was out of work with back pain that came out of nowhere. Went to the chiropractor and was 100% better in 4 easy treatments along with the easy stretches I was advised to do. I've never had a "real doctor" actually help me with anything. Just give a prescription and send you on your way.
R G Ree Here’s the thing. You giving anecdotal evidence that chiropractic worked for you is not how you prove chiropractic works. This has to be peer reviewed. And that means having people who know how to disprove a falsifiable claim. And since probability comes into play in this field, the results gathered have to be statistically significant. Thus multiple tests need to be performed following a strict and proven methodology. Unfortunately since the average person won’t be able to do that, we have to rely on accredited institutions that have proven to be credible, otherwise we could believe anyone with a degree from a diploma mill. And the reality is, the claims from chiropractic haven’t passed muster.
@@nickfooz lol just look at the thounds of others that have been helped meanwhile you concentrated on just 1 person's comments. Pffft I bet you call it good at two.
@@nickfooz FOO on your bias
@@xxzxzxzxx6974 its still anecdotal evidence
@@xxzxzxzxx6974 there are people who believe that they are witchs and can do spells, human accounts are credible in law not science because science requires testing with 100% accuracy, you cant have leeway or in this case human error to get in the way.
Information is so incredibly valuable. This is the reason why these podcast being documented are so valuable, it's also the reason why Joe got 100 Mil LOL. But in all seriousness if you watch Joe Rogan podcast from the beginning, you will see topics, issues and controversies pretty much from the beginning of History and be able to connect the dots with information provided to get an overarching understanding. However the real value will be in a system / source of information that can allow us as Citizens to see the wrong doing before it is done. And with that statement you should see why AI an deep learning algorithms are such a heavy investment somebody will have the technology first, and for our sakes hopefully it is the least Troublesome person place or thing
