The truth about chiropractic, as I see it.
Chiropractic is based on a pseudoscientific belief in vitalism, but within the field, there are many diverse groups, ranging from completely ineffective modalities to a competent integrative medicine approach. There is some evidence that chiropractic can give some subjective relief to back pain sufferers, but the effect is pretty modest, and comparable to exercise, massage and heat therapy.
I highly recommend Chirobase, the skeptic's guide to chiropractic. An excellent and deep site.
