If I were to go back in time - I don’t think I’d be a Chiropractor and here’s why…
1. The Chiropractic philosophy of subluxations and adjustments is something that I completely disagree with. The philosophy that it helps the body to heal itself, prevents degeneration and whatever - is just not true. To say that someone’s health comes down to an adjustment is ridiculous.
2. A lot of chiros advocate for regular adjustments, x-rays and postural corrections that really don’t mean anything. Most of them are just good at selling the benefit vs there actually being a benefit. And if there was a benefit - it doesn’t only come from the adjustment. There are other factors such as the patient-client interaction.
3. I really enjoy training and rehabbing people with low back and lower limb injuries but most people believe that chiros only treat the spine and adjust. Which is just boring to me. And I could do a really good job rehabbing and train people without being a chiro.
4. The job opportunities aren’t the same. You are limited by your title - regardless of how good you are or if you have experience treating a certain type of population. For example, a lot of clinics or teams won’t hire you because you’re a chiro because they want a physio.
5. At the end of the day it’s just a title. But there’s a lot of negatives that comes with being a chiro - that I just don’t like.
