There is no doubt that many claims made by chiropractors are bunk. Many chiropractic practitioners are a little "out there" in my experience. That said, I think it is a mistake to entirely dismiss chiropractic care as not providing real benefits. I worked with a chiropractor who was also a trained physical therapist (with many years of PT experience) and the combination of the two practices was key in resolving long-term plantar fascia problems I suffered from. Weird, but the combination of good physical therapy with actual adjustment of my problematic foot bone structure solved a chronic issue after orthopedic physicians had told me to basically give up or consider a surgical solution. So while chiropractic care is over-promoted and over-blown by many, it can be helpful as an adjunct mode of care. Whenever people ask, I always point out that the chiropractor I worked with was also a physical therapist and that I think the physical therapy side of the treatment was more helpful than the chiropractic, but that I found both treatments helpful.
