I think we're potentially arguing different sides of the same story and not realizing it. I think of it like I do used car salesmen. There are a number of them would steal your kids lollipop, given the chance. However, that doesn't mean that there aren't plenty of good ones out there as well. Unfortunately for the good ones, the bad ones get all of the press and set the reputation for the industry. It seems much harder to find a good one, than a shady one.

So, yes there are good chiro's out there, but the bulk of those in the public eye are nothing more than snake oil salesmen. I had a similar experience to the OP, except that my back did feel much better after leaving. However, I couldn't handle the level of BS they were feeding me to put up with any more visits. I actually had the "helper girl" say to me, “I hope you're our next miracle."

I'd love to go back (pun intended) to a chiro, but finding one that isn't trying to turn me into a miracle and lock me into $6k contract for treatment has me scratching my head on how to find a "real" chiro. I've called almost everyone in the book and they all gave me the creepy cult vibe.

So those of you in the industry or validating the industry, other than personal reference (which also let me to a quack) how does one go about finding a legitimate chiro? There don't seem to be too many regulations or industry accreditations that help someone filter out the chafe from the wheat.
