Talk:Chiropractic treatment techniques

message: MUA is manipulation under anesthesia. It is very uncommon, is not considered mainstream chiropractic, and is not even legal in all states. Why are statements in the WP:LEAD sourced from MUA sources. Namely, why is the statement "Typically, it is performed on patients who have failed to respond to other forms of treatment.[6]" included in this page at all? MUA is indeed a last ditch effort, and is considered to be the nuclear weapon of manipulation. I revised this statement to read: "Typically, it is performed on patients who have neck or back pain." and provided the reference here: 
But also the statement "Spinal manipulation (SMT) became more popular in the 1980s.[3]" is sourced from a MUA site. And although SMT gained popularity during the late 80s it was because of the AMA suit, and subsequent inclusion of chiropractic in insurance, referrals from other professions, etc.... So I think this should added, or the 1980s reference should be removed altogether.

thread_title:  MUA. Why is it here? 

message: I previously edited the statement "The use of spinal manipulation for non-musculoskeletal is controversial. It has not been shown to be affective for asthma, headache, and anything other than low back pain. Massage is effective in adults for chronic low back pain and chronic neck pain.[14] [27] and no scientific data for idiopathic adolescent scoliosis.[28]" to "The use of spinal manipulation for non-musculoskeletal is controversial. It has not been shown to be affective for asthma, hypertension, or dysmenorrhea.[15] There is no scientific data that supports the use of SMT for idiopathic adolescent scoliosis.[28][29]"
Brangifer caught the previous typo of "affective", but rejected other changes. Namely, reinstating the errant word headaches. The article cited for evidence for or against asthma, hypertension, and menstrual issues clearly supports the use of manipulation for headaches. The MSK section on this wiki page also has 3 references to that extent and states that manipulation is effective for headaches. So I propose that headaches be removed from the non-MSK section.
Also, I think the first line should read "The use of spinal manipulation for non-musculoskeletal is controversial, and should be considered experimental." This would reflect the idea that no one knows exactly what manipulation may be effective for, and for anyone to say otherwise is irresponsible.

Alternatively, you can add  to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

message: The claim that Palmer developed the Diversified technique has been added to the relevant section of this article here. This is sourced to a single popular press article, written by an unknown author that contains no references to support the claim. Ultimately, the claim is incorrect. The diversified technique was developed by a slow and steady move away from the dogmatic approaches espoused by Palmers by various early chiropractors. The current version of the non-proprietary and eclectic technique used by the majority of chiropractors today is attributed to Joe Janse, D.C. This is verified by this online article in the Journal of Chiropractic Humanities and the book Technique Systems in Chiropractic. 2001:56A:75B7:9B00:D3:7051:DE4:DD01 (talk) 04:03, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

message: Remove this article about chiropractic. This is a misleading, ignorant information. I heard bad comments about Wikipedia not being trustful. I disagreed until now, when I saw the article on chiropractic. "It is just an information", some other ignorant answered. It is misleading. Do you know how many deaths caused by opioid, and disability post surgery would be avoided if the patient had received chiropractic treatment in the first place.
This is awful. 2603:9001:5800:C8AE:4CA:3CE4:613F:5F24 (talk) 22:46, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
