How Do You Spot A Bad Chiropractor?
Good chiropractors may help restore your health, while bad ones can ruin it. Most chiropractors rely on spinal manipulation, with the idea that any out-of-line vertebrae can affect other body systems and organs. However, there is a good deal of controversy as to whether or not this comprehensive approach is valid. A chiropractor who insists on using spinal manipulation to cure everything could be one of the bad ones. Ask for a second opinion if you’re not comfortable with what you hear. Visit the FCLB Web site (see Resources below). The link provided will take you to the instructions for making a query about your chiropractor. Have your credit card handy, as there is a small charge for each request. Click on the ‘Query Form’ link. Print the form and fill it out (be sure to include the fax number you can be reached at on the form or cover sheet). Fax it back with your payment information included. You will receive a response via fax within 1 business day. Check with your insurance compa
