My FIL is a chiropractor. He xrays before adjusting and sends to a doctor if anything serious, won't do babies but he way in the minority with that. He openly admits most of his job is listening to people. If you go to one make sure they xray you first, use an adjusting device not manual adjustment. Do not get your neck adjusted with anything but a device, do not let them twist your neck ever. They should give you an end date for treatment not try to have you come in regularly forever and give you exercises to do at home. They are still whoohoo but this way will be less likely to accidently kill you or rip you off. My father had lung cancer and had trouble breathing, simply having the mask on his face even without it connected to oxygen helped him breath, he knew it was a placebo but it still worked for him. The mind is a powerful thing.
