Treatment of babies by chiropractors, and in the UK by osteopaths, continues to be a serious issue. There are several common themes that occur within these unsuitable treatment approaches. Let's take a closer look based on a UK #chiropractic practice: westonchiropractic.co.uk/babies-and-chi… 🧵

#chiropractic treatment has no effect on spinal alignment and chiropractors are not qualified to treat mental health conditions like anxiety and depression.

More than 40 million Americans are plagued by mental health problems every year. Chiropractic care can help solve mental health issues such as anxiety and depression by adjusting spinal misalignment. kingsparkchiropractic.com.au/chiropractic-t…

Stroke doc and #neurointensivist here. 💯 agree. Do NOT let anyone #manipulate your neck. I’ve seen WAY too many #chiropractic neck manipulations gone wrong

Dear people of the world: Do not let anyone manipulate / forcibly twist your neck... no matter how old/young you are. There is no such thing as 0% risk. From: A doctor who performs stroke interventions.

Just a sampling of some recent quacks quacking on about how back cracking helps your nervous system and therefore your immune system. This is, once again, quackery. Prescientific vitalism. Your body's (imaginary) innate intelligence. #chiropractic #SCAM

At least they admit they can't cure #allergies (but then again neither can fancy science so LOL), after a series of back cracking, the misalignments that no one can actually see will be gone, your brain properly communicating, and your allergies will be milder! 🙄 #chiropractic

Nothing to see here, just a chiropractor denying germs causing disease. And of course promoting the equally prescientific notion that back cracking leads to better overall health. #chiropractic #SCAM

Just look at a few of the claims they make about the "benefits" of cracking an autistic child's back—or whatever pediatric #chiropractic theatrics they perform: focus and attention, muscle tone, pain relief, relaxation... 🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆

#chiropractic DOES NOT "keep your nervous system operating at optimal capacity." The only tool here is the chiropractor pushing back cracking to ignorant but well-meaning parents. Honestly, it's disgusting the way they prey on parents of #autistic children. #autism #SCAM

The other thing I find concerning is how often chiropractors pitch the need to see them after an accident or other traumatic injury, especially involving the neck, when their stock defense after causing a stroke or killing someone is they already had a VAD before coming in.

And while it may not be addictive, chiropractors sure want you to think #chiropractic for ANY pain in your body, as well as considering "regular chiropractic care" as part of your general health and wellness.

#chiropractic focuses on selling #chiropractic. It also repeats the same 19th century vitalist quackery wrapped up in modern terms: "nervous system interference" vs #subluxation, but it's all the same. 🦆🦆🦆

It "may." But it won't. #acupuncture or #dryneedling, whatever your chiropractor is selling you, is not going to do anything, other than cost you money. And maybe if you believe in it, you'll "feel better." #chiropractic #SCAM

Ahh yes, the classic use ofp the "can help" weasel words. Again, this is not how the human body works—yes, there's nervous system communication, but cracking your back won't do anything to "help" it... No matter how regularly you pay for it. #chiropractic #SCAM

When you realize #chiropractic is a business first and foremost, everything about it makes more sense.

#LongCovid = real. #chiropractic boosting your immune system ≠ real. Getting your back cracked, once or 100x, will not do anything for your immune—or any other—system. #chirocult #SCAM

First, #chiropractic ads will often refer to "a recent study" or "studies," but they very provide any specifics, let alone link to the study itself. Second, #dryneedling is #acupuncture, cloaked in terminology about trigger points to make it sound more legit—but it's not. #SCAM

Pure 19th century vitalism. They might as well be using words like the body's #innateintelligence and #subluxations because that's what they're talking about. #chiropractic #SCAM
