Every chiropractor who has been in practice for some time has had a population of patients that did not respond as he would have expected. Oh sure, many of them got relief from the chiropractic care provided, but it only lasted for a few hours — a day, tops. And mind you, we’re not talking about the first few visits, but, rather, a well-established pattern. Or the patient did well with the adjustments, only to have the back misalign again from a trivial event. It’s been my experience that not every patient 
falls into the typical “restore-motion-to-stuck-spinal-joint-and-watch-patient-get-better” category. Sometimes we chiropractors need to acknowledge that not every case of mechanical back pain is due to spinal joints being” stuck” or “locked” — instead, sometimes it’s just the opposite: the joints are too loose.

Today it is becoming more and more accepted by the health care community and public at large that chiropractors are great back doctors. I would agree. The scientific literature certainly supports our primary method of treatment for back pain, and more insurance companies are covering our services for it. Considering our history of long uphill battles to gain “acceptance” as a viable health care profession, it is understandable that we might be drawn to settle into this “comfortable chair” of being labeled as back pain specialists. But to do so would really be undermining the true potential that the art, science, and philosophy of chiropractic has to offer. (more…)

Then the same people will ask with a concerned look on their face, “You don’t really adjust her spine do you?”
