People criticizing him on his lack of knowledge in a field he is expected to have relevant knowledge in doesn’t make them haters.

[@MerdaDeCabelo]

@@BodilyFunction hes expected to have knowledge on the field of Spine SURGERY not spine manipulation. He works from inside whilst chiropractics work from outside, 2 completely different things and he REPEATEDLY states in his video that he doesnt claim to know anything about chiropractic therefore the "critics" were unfair, rude and misleading themselves. If you want knowledge in the topic go watch a video about a CHIROPRACTIC watching another chiropractic. Those were not constructive criticism they were people annoyed that they were on the wrong video. Do you need to degrade him to tell him to seek more information in a topic? Cause if you do then that's a problem with you not the criticised. Them saying that he was misleading is idiotic, seeing as he clearly stated to not take his word for such topics as he was requested repeatedly to react to these things and so he did. I dont mean to sound rude and as if I cant take criticism but idiotic behaviour is NOT criticism.

[@BodilyFunction]

@@MerdaDeCabelo I’d say me saying their criticism doesn’t make them all haters compared to this reaction is a bit of an overreaction from my point of view. However the one topic I would like to debate with you is wether or not he should have known about chiropractic services. As HE had mentioned in his own video, he always tries everything he can to see if he can help solve or mediate the issue WITHOUT surgery. Which implies that him having knowledge on other services and treatments for spinal issues outside of surgery is also part of his job. For him to have regarded chiropractic medicine as not a real or effective medicine before even looking into it before hand could be called negligence since he says himself that part of his job has to do with referring people with back issues that can be resolved without surgery. I think what he’s doing here is good but to say that the criticism in his first video is unjustified or “idiotic” because he’s a surgeon not chiropractor himself is just misleading and unfair as hell. He’s a professional, he has a large audience that generally look to him as a professional to hear his opinions on things and as a professional to say that another very legitimate profession is fake or doesn’t actually help is incredibly damaging regardless of if he told people not to take his word for it. People don’t seem to understand the kind of effect opinions of those in such specialized and advanced fields can have. He has considerable power whether he wants to or not and he should be more thorough in his research before giving opinions on things in his general field of study since many people will see them as a professional doctors opinion. I will find time stamps where he said multiple times that he tries to refer people out to help the issue WITHOUT surgery which implies he knows what can help with certain spinal ailments without needed specific surgical knowledge.

[@BodilyFunction]

1:39 2:42 8:00 I would also like to add that I don’t think he is bad or evil or has Ill intent. all I think is that the criticisms he received were completely legitimate and that he should do more research in these fields that are closely related to his own field of study before giving his opinion on them. I think this video is a good thing and something I wish more people would do after receiving legitimate non hateful criticisms.

[@MerdaDeCabelo]

@@BodilyFunction I would say you have a valid argument, but to put the public audience as people who cant do things for themselves on his back isnt exactly fair. You're expecting him (a person who's definitely really busy) to have extensive research on a subject that has not been brought up to his attention other than youtube comments requesting it. A "criticism" saying that they're questioning his credibility on a subject he deliberately said that he has no credibility on is, put very simply, ignorant. They ignored the fact that he directly addressed his credibility in the subject which should entice YOU the viewer to go look for more credible source. To say that the viewers are just a bunch of followers with no ability to form opinions of their own based on their own research and use that as a reason to degrade someone's image is very simply not fair and again... ignorant of the part of the "critics". You're taking a very malleable piece of information and including it into the equation as a strict factor when it obviously has multiple forms.

After laying in so much pain for months and slow physical therapy, someone suggested going to a Chiro. After just one session, i immediately felt so much pain relief. I could actually move my right arm without an enormous amount of pain. I kept going and kept getting better and better. I am able to move, lift and do so much and it is all thanks to my Chiro.

The main thing is that’s an issue is forcing the pop. If you just tilt your head and your neck cracks, no biggie. I’ve been getting neck adjustment for a little over a year over the onset of whiplash. When I first started, I couldn’t get my nose in line with my shoulders, but now I have full range of motion (c3-c4 is still a little locked up but has been getting better).

[@xxportalxx.]

@@georgedenny9446 yeah it sounds like bs to me, I had whiplash after a car accident and literally just stretched my own neck whenever it got stiff, by the time of my physical therapy appointment there was nothing wrong with my neck anymore. I would personally say cracking your own neck is fine, considering I went from severe whiplash to perfectly fine in just a couple weeks by doing so, stretching it often rather than just during the few spread out appts.

I think those that called him out forgot at the end, or didn't make it to the end of his video, where he said try everything before coming in to surgery.

Is extremely disappointing that many people actually think like you. We practice evidence based medicine, in other words we offer treatments that have been proven to work when studied under rigorous scientific protocols. This is not an ideological issue or a school of taught, is about what has been proven to work using the scientific method and what is unproven quackery. Most of the things chiropractors offer have been shown to be not better than a placebo and the things that work are already offered by orthopedists, physiatrists, physical therapists, etc.

A guy named Neil offered to help and had basic chiropractic knowledge. I was already in agony but he stuffed his knee in my back and yanked my shoulders backwards. Loudest crack id ever heard. I was furious at him as I thought he'd broke my back. I stubbornly refused further manipulation. Over the next 3 days my upper back although sore had never felt so mobile, loose and good.
