It really helped me sort out what I have already suspected to be true about chiropractic. Psychologists say chiropractors who deal with learning disabilities are beyond their scope of practice. They say misaligned vertebrae are to blame and that adjustments can correct these problems.
Psychologists say that's all bunk.
There are chiropractors who claim that their adjustments can improve conditions such as Attention Deficit Disorder, hyperactivity and learning disabilities. Illustration from chiropractic Web site that discusses chiropractic and learning disabilities. One North Bay chiropractor claims to be able to correct learning disabilities, ADD, epilepsy and autism by adjusting the bones in the skull. Psychologists say these claims are nonsense. The College of Chiropractic of Ontario which regulates chiropractors declined repeated requests to comment for this story.
