nsurance also pays for massages, which is what chiropracty is.

What a fucking idiot you are. Chiropractors adjust joints and deal with bones. 
Massage manipulates soft tissue. 

Both have solid science behind their practices. If you want to see some science 
behind massage check the journal of movement and bodywork therapies. I can't 
post that material here or I will be silenced by the moderator. 

In terms of the efficacy of chiropractic, I don't have any studies to point to 
at the moment, only 15 years of working with chiros and seeing positive results 
both from my clients and for my own low back issues. The science behind putting 
out of kilter joints back in alignment is pretty sraightforward, but you still 
have some orthopedists pooh-pooing it at the same time they're sharpening their 
knives. Hardly disinterested. 

At the same time I know a few more humble orthos who actually work with chiros 
and LMT's in order to keep from losing their client base. Most people try 
anything to avoid the knife, and for good reason. And if they fall onto the 
table of a chiro with skillful hands all the better.
