I am a believer of chiropractors. But and that is a large but, chiropractors are a technician of a treatment. They are not to be used for diagnosing your ailment. And I am totally against them being able to prescribe unless they also have an MD.

Chiropractors working with Doctors is the way to go. Each does what they are good at.

Just as an MD prescribes Physical Therapy (also a treatment) MD should be able to prescribe chiropractic treatments.

But in no way would I accept any "diagnosis" from a chiropractors just like I would not accept any "diagnosis" from a Physical Therapist.

And the concept of non-MDs prescribing drugs is just too scary.
