CBC News - Consumer Life - Back pain machine in use after losing licence
There are so many products and people out there making these types of claims. I find it very upsetting as it taints the whole profession of Chiropractors. Sadly, it then reflects on all of us who practice complementary and alternative medicine.
Share this story with anyone that you know who may be using this type of machine (decompression machine - used to treat disk herniation). At least they can then make an informed decision about whether or not they would like to continue with the treatments.
There are many treatments, effective treatments, that don't have scientific evidence to support it's use. That doesn't mean that the treatments don't work, just that our current scientific model hasn't been able to prove it. However, claiming that there is evidence when there is not - well, that's just fraudulent.
Yours in Health,
