    It’s not complicated. They are not doctors. That isn’t to say that some chiropractic practises can have medical benefits because they can, that fact doesn’t make them doctors though. Masseuses are not doctors either, not even the real ones.

      Heh ya

      Think what kinda complicates it, in a way, is (per Wiki):

      A chiropractor may have a Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) degree and be referred to as “doctor” but is not a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) or a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.).

      It’s actually worse because some masseuses have doctorates in physical therapy, meanwhile a chiropractor is more likely to fuck up your spine than anything else.
