PSA: Chiropractors aren't doctors, they aren't better than any other "alternative" healer and at worse are conmen and can fuck you up permanently. Don't ever go to chiropractors.

Just to add - Physical Therapist is what you call someone that deals with the same things, but has y’know a medical license to practice these things.

Kinésithérapeute in french (the good one).

Ostheopathe in french (the quack one).

N'est-ce pas un chiropraticien ou chiropracteur ?

Osteopaths and chiropractors are slightly different kinds of liars.

Osteopathic Medicine in the US is legit though, they go through basically the same training as MDs. There's some philosophical differences but osteopathic doctors are actually doctors.

This is true. For this reason, US doctors of osteopathic medicine generally don't like to be called "osteopaths", to avoid being associated with their pseudoscientist counterparts.
