Episode notes
Chiropractic Is Not One Thing
- Chiropractic is diverse and often centered on a high-speed joint adjustment model that influences the nervous system.
- Many chiropractors combine adjustments with manual therapy, posture work, and tech-driven assessments.

- Differences in receptor type and dose explain why some people improve and others don't.
