Imagine this scenario:
"My computer stopped working one day so I kicked it hard and it started working again! Maybe kicking computers works."
And you, as a "computer person," are like: "I can't say what happened in your specific case, but generally speaking kicking your computer will probably cause more harm than good. Maybe you caused it to restart or something or got lucky and something that was loose inside the machine got pushed into a tight fit. Or maybe it was a total coincidence. Who knows. But I'm glad it's now working for you."
That's probably what someone in the medical community thinks when they hear stuff like the above.
(And now here comes GoopTech offering to fix your computer by kicking it for $50/kick.)
