There’s been a lot of negative talk on chiropractors and how they don’t really help, science wise. What about acupuncture?

Rule of life: If “alternative medicine,” was real and had scientific basis, it would just be called “medicine.”

Medicine is a scientific field because it’s supported by scientific research. If you want something that has actual “science,” behind it, scientifically backed medicine is the only place to get it.

If you want to believe in magic based medicine, you’re more than welcome to (though I strongly urge you don’t force children or animals to undergo these “treatments”), but you are going to have to acknowledge that there’s no scientific backing, and that often times the scientific research into those alternative practices shoes they’re more harmful than the practitioners let on. This goes for chiropractic, crystal healing, homeopathy, and everything else as well.

Medlife Crisis on YouTube actually did a pretty good video talking about alternative medicine recently, and I strongly urge you to check it out: [https://youtu.be/7paOUIrjEvw?si=er2yfcAzbq7OOJCK](https://youtu.be/7paOUIrjEvw?si=er2yfcAzbq7OOJCK)
