It is recorded that chiropractic is very much established in the United States and Canada and it is considered to be the largest alternative medical profession in the United States. It is now on the third spot following medicine and dentistry on the doctored profession in the U.S. Most people who seek the chiropractic care are people who suffer from back pain and neck pain. A large number of patients give a positive review and is very much satisfied with the chiropractic treatment they have had especially at El Sobrante Chiropractic clinic.
Even with little or no known proof if the chiropractic treatment really works it has gained a certain charm among the masses. What makes it very tempting is their drugless treatment. Most chiropractors especially the straight ones or the followers of the classic theory strongly detest the use of drugs or any other forms of instrument to aid in the healing of a person. They believe that there’s no need for this measure because the body can just heal itself if it is restored to its normal condition, a belief which puts the chiropractic practice in the spotlight for all other traditional or mainstream medical experts to question. The treatment’s lack of test or the chiropractors’ strong stand against scientific method of testing the treatment gathers more criticism and questions. In El Sobrante Chiropractic clinic they also have their own set of groups who continues to criticize their work.
The early chiropractors once thought of making the chiropractic practice a religion. Even the father of chiropractic D.D. Palmer and his son B.J. Palmer seriously considered declaring the practice a religion. If that did happen it would have legal protection which is written under the United States constitution. But the idea did not push through partly because they don’t want people to confuse chiropractic to be a Christian Science.
The credibility of chiropractic is not on the same level as to the mainstream medical practice but all chiropractors would claim that they can perform as well as or even better than the medical physicians. Even the chiropractors of El Sobrante Chiropractic clinic will agree that they should be given similar credits as medical physicians. Although there are a few recorded test which was done to prove the spinal manipulation effect on the human body and the result doesn’t necessarily prove that the treatment is effective nor does it disprove it. In the rate of 4 tests done there’s always one test that would come out as positive. Though the long term preventive effect of the treatment is not yet proven to be true.
Followers of the chiropractic practice are made up of two different groups, namely the straights and the mixers. The straights are chiropractors who still use the traditional theories and treatment in chiropractic while the mixers allow the use of other forms of treatment to aid the patient’s healing process. The El Sobrante Chiropractic clinic is one of the many proofs that the chiropractic industry still continues to grow even with all the controversy and criticism it’s facing.
