Objections to the So-Called
Science of Chiropractic
The practice of Chiropractic is dangerous to unsuspecting
people who know nothing about it due to the unreasonable
claims it makes.
This article is written by one who has made a thorough in-
vestigation of this "so-called" science. He has. been through
one of their schools :ind knows how the Chiropractor is to to
speak hatched out. If anyone reading this article desires to
be a Chiropractic doctor all he has to do is to get up the amount
ot $300.00 for tuition plus $50.00 for books then take a few
months course which will .turn him out with a D. C. diploma.
The only requirement is that he can read and write and bare
the money. The school in question has no laboratory one small
X-ray machine a few lecture rooms and a clinic room. The
tuition is more than our best Medical Colleges charge and. as
stated above it has no equipment for teaching the people who
will later hold themselves out to impose upon the public as
healers of diseases.
Chiropractic denounces the germ theory of diseases and
claims that all diseases are caused by dislocations of the spinal
vertebrae. Students are taught that diptheria is only a bad
vertebrae. Students are taught that diphtheria is .only a bad
JUSTMENT OP THE SPINAL VERTEBRAE. Would you want
your child treated for diphtheria by a Chiropractic treatment of
"adjusting" the back of the neck?
Antitoxin has cut down the death rate in cases of diphtheria
from 85 per cent to less than 10 per cent.
Chiropractic will have to prove its" theory before regular
physicians will accept its claims. Let them expose a man to
the malarial mosquito and adjust his spine every day; and if .
he does not take malaria then we will accept its theory. Let
them expose an unvaccinated man to smallpox and adjust the
spine every day; then if he does not take smallpox we will
accept the theory.
. There was a man who came over from Germany a few years
ago who claimed to have a cure in the form of Turtle serum for
tuberculosis. People afflicted came to him in droves and ?tood
at his front door for days waiting for an opportunity to see
him He treated a number of cases and made a million dollars
and some of the people gave him testimonials stating that they
were cured; but the regular physicians who are willing to ac-
cept any remedy whether it be medical surgical massage se-
rum or the laying on of hands if found good obtained permis-
sion to prove the efficiency of his remedy and when the test
was made the remedy was found of no value whatever in the
treatment of tuberculosis.
Summing up our objections to Chiropractic are:
1st. Its schools are unprepared to teach the vital subjects
relative to the diseases of the human body the money appar-
ently being the only consideration to graduation.
2nd. It teaches that subluxated vertebrae of the spine Is
the cause of practically all .diseases. This it is not able to prove
and is unwilling to try in an intelligent way.
3rd. It is trafficking in human life. and with glaring adver-
tisements leads the sick to believe in a false hope.
4th. It refuses to meet the standard requirements of the
Statq of Texas and encourages violations of the laws of the
State which say that everyone practicing shall have a certain
knowledge of diseases and of the human body before being per-
mitted to practice on the people of this State.
5th. Chiropractic clulms to be ignorant in the diagnosis of
diseases and may treat some dangerous disease like diphtheria
until it is too late for antitoxin to relieve the patient and caase
someone to go to an untimely grave.
If Chiropractic is right and It will meet the test and prove
that it is the greatest panacea for disease that has ever been"5
discovered we can do away with all sanitary laws that are
based on the germ theory have our backs adjusted occasionally
and fear no danger from typhoid dysentery tuberculosis small-
pox venereal diseases or any other disease.
Wo say that germs cause many diseases and have proven
this fact over and over; and we are willing to prove It again
here In Brownwood by inoculating with some disease producing
germ anyone who practices or teaches Chiropractic and ihat
too after his buck has been duly rubbed and pronounced per-
fectly adjusted. If he does not develop the disease then the
system may be right; but if ho does develop the disease then it
is patent that the system is not right
We feel that the people of Brownwood have a right to a test
of this kind because some of them have been led to believe in
this "so-called" science.
