Physio or Chiro?

[acedsm]

I spoke to my chiro and he said all chiropractic courses are 5 years full-time worldwide, he said there no such thing as a 3 month course. The New Zealand course is 5 years with a double degree done together, one in Physiology and the other in Chiropractic.

Also they are called doctors of chiropractic just the same way a doctor of medicine or doctor of dentistry is called doctor. They are legally allowed to call themselves doctors due to the level of study they do. I also called a friend of mine who has finished med school. The doctor designation they give them is not the same as a doctorate that a PHD gets, that level is way way above what "medical" doctors get. So I guess the end of the day the big Doctor thing doesn't really mean much after all, considering its not the top academic level.

Actually you can get a whole bunch of "REAL" facts by calling the person you want to go see and ask questions, irrespective of what profession they are involved in. If they can answer your questions and are willing to spend time advising you, i think they would be a good start. I would however walk out the door if one profession starts bagging out a different profession, thats just bad professionalism and you most probably don't want to waste time with them anyway. What Jack says about Jim, say more about Jack than it says about Jim.

If people were a bit more diplomatic over what they type maybe other poeple might actually benefit from reliable advice. I guess you cant expect to get any reliable advice online and have to stick to the old school "ask the question"

MADVR4 thank you for your opinion, it actually makes sence. I have a few friends in Melbourne who are chiropractors and they do some really good work, Dr Paul Finn I think is near your chiro? I guess you can't help the ignorant and unwilling no matter what you do.

raka, still waiting on that 3 month course deal? post it up when you find it. A friend who was in Russia said you can pay $75,000USD an they will give you a medical degree and then can come to Australia or New Zealand and get registered and be practicing medicine. Now thats what I call a medical Practice lol.

go to the osteopath, they actually get you fixed up and most of the time refer you to somebody else if they can't not like money sapping chiros.

I thought about that for no more than 5 seconds and came to the conclusion you are what is considered the classic definition of a ignorant bigot. Blinded by prejudices taught by everyone else apart from yourself and I am going to go out on a limb here, taught probably by your parents. A realist who has no real concept of deduction who lives life on inductive logic at the worst.

Chiropractic is not better than any other profession. Neither is Medicine or Osteopathy or Physiotherapy or blah blah. They are mealy different professions, achieving different objective objectives. I fathom to understand how a partially logical person cannot see this. Responding to a healthy debate as LOL, really shows you have no collective thought apart from a single sided bigoted bias view based on little substance if any.

If you really want to think about something for a second Ill give you something to think about.

Does the medical profession really want you healthily, so you no longer get sick and unwell? Think about that for a minute or two, i have ran that debate myself for the last 6 months as I was asked the same question by my mentor. Do drug make you healthy? Do they result in a stronger healthier individual? If they could make a pharmaceutical with no side effects, one you only take once and you would never have cancer or heart attacks or anything would they make it?

Now a relatively deductive minded person would probably say NO, they would never ever make such a thing. So the next question is why not? I guess the answer is the same reason why making petrol cars is inherently better than electric even when research time and time and time again has shown that green house gases are killing the earth as a result of it. God can only hope that when that happens the bigots die first.





Chiropractry! You really need to get back to school promptly.

Personal attacks have started. Indirectly wishing someone's death is not something a religious person should do, nor something that will be tolerated on here. Thread locked, further discussion threads will be deleted.

It's obvious to me that we have two schools of thought, neither of which will embrace the concept that the other may or may not be correct.

Drop it and move on.
