Chiropractic Manipulation Scary But True

When pain is bad, a pretty smile can go a long way towards making you more comfortable about trying chiropractic for the first time.

By Dr. Thomas Polucki

Of course you want a doctor with confidence and good “bed side manner”.

But if you still have the same problem after insurance or the pre-paid visits run out…Regardless of how much you like your chiropractor, you may need to try something different to get better.

Too often chiropractors struggle to convince people of the value that chiropractic care offers.

Because the perceived value of chiropractic varies from an illegal “no copay” to a $5000 first week of care.

Which confuses just about everyone about what the real value is.

So most chiropractors hire consultants to teach them how to sell chiropractic or up-sell patients on some trendy gimmick.

When in fact, the real value of chiropractic is quality of life enhancing results.

I’d like to show you the real value of chiropractic without manipulation.

But first these examples may explain why so many still fear the chiropractor.

Chiropractic Manipulation

In just the past two weeks, when asked about their previous chiropractic care, my first visit patients responded with: I tried a $500 upper cervical adjustment that supposedly “fixes everything, permanently” and it didn’t.

As an advanced upper cervical instructor that taught at two chiropractic colleges, I call Bad Science on that chiropractor.

Or they took x-rays told me how bad “it” was, but they never took any x-rays after “a lot of treatments”.

If an x-ray shows the problem… Which it is does NOT.

Then the chiropractor’s responsibility must be to correct that problem and prove it by taking another x-ray.

I bought a “corrective” plan for about $3000 but after a year of “adjustments” I still have 9 out of 10 sciatica.

But I really like her and she says “the scans” are improving.

By the way, that 9/10 sciatica reduced to a 4/10 on the patient’s first visit in my office. Total cost $175.

And I didn’t really have any pain but the chiropractor wanted me to pay $1000 in advance for… WHAT?

I don’t know.

Or I went to “the most popular chiropractor” in town, asked him specifically not to twist or crack me, he ignored me and manipulated me anyway.

Wow.

Chiropractic Without Manipulation

I used to wonder why it was so hard to talk to people about chiropractic.

But now I just focus on working with people who are ready to get better.

Done properly, chiropractic is thousands of times safer than aspirin and has better patient satisfaction than surgery.

Chiropractic without manipulation looks something like this.
