Chiropractic was invented by a guy who learned it from a ghost.
The core tenet of chiropractics is that “life force” flows through the spine and “blocks” in that is what causes diseases/pains.
Most people think they are some kind of spine experts, while in reality it is nothing like that and more like concepts of Chi and meridians.
The thing is, a lot of chiros don’t delve into that crap, because it’s such obvious bullshit, but some do and will tell you in all sincerity that cracking that L6-8 might just kill your cancer.
In any case, stay far far away from them.

Who knows better about relaxing the spine than a ghost that doesn’t have one?

In a roundabout way, this can be true. No host, no disease.

Scorched earth medicine, effective in 100% of cases! Life’s overrated anyway.

Well, L6-8 would likely just make you impotent and unable to shit. When they do rapid adjustments to the cervical vertebra and release a blood clot because they're not trained to listen to the carotid artery with a stethoscope at least before doing that is when the real fun begins.
