I find all this babble very disconcerting. I am a trained chiropractor but my education has not stopped since I started chiro school in 2000. As a matter of fact, I tend to study more these days. I have studied under Chiros, PTs, osteopaths MDs and hve even learned some things from massage therapists and trainers. Everyone has something to offer. Once more, I have met some great chiros and some terrible ones. The same can be said for MDs and PTs as I am sure you all know. I cannot speak for physical therapists but the main problem with chiros (granted there are many) is that they do not receive enough clinical expereince. Many of them believe they possess the one skill needed to get anyone and everyone better; the much maligned chiropractic adjustment. So if a chiro adjusts -- it's the devils work. If a PT adjusts (Maitland, Diane Lee, to name a few) they are considered progressive. Of course it is not the adjustment that is the problem; its the explanation as to what the adjustment is actually doing.
