Of all forms of alternative medicine, chiropractic is the one that
is most generally accepted. In the UK, for instance, chiropractors
are regulated by statute and even have their own 'Royal College of
Chiropractic'. In the US, chiropractic's country of origin, most
chiropractors carry the title 'doctor' and many consumers believe
they are medically trained. Despite this high level of acceptance,
chiropractic is wide open to criticism. The claims and assumptions
made by chiropractors are far from evidence based. Chiropractic
manipulations are of doubtful effectiveness and have regularly been
associated with severe adverse effects, including multiple
fatalities. The advice issued by chiropractors to patients and
consumers is often less than responsible. The behaviour of
chiropractors and their organisations is frequently less than
professional. This book presents and discusses recent evidence in
and around chiropractic in a factual and unemotional manner. It
amounts to an evidence-based critique of this profession and
discloses the often dangerously misleading information published
for the lay audience. It thereby contributes to advancing public
health and critical thinking.
