Having said that, chiropractic or any other form of care *can* become mainstream if it conducts statistical trials and meets the same standards as a proposed medical device or tablet. Once the evidence is there, conventional medicine quickly adopts improved new technologies/methods. The claims that conventional medicine is biased against "better" alternative care is clearly nonsense. Conventional medicine is properly biased against unproven claims whether from its own practitioners, from scientists, from eastern gurus, from whoever.

IMHO: for some care modalities to *still* have no peer reviewed, statistically valid trials after years of claims about benefit, is a pointer in itself. If the care is so good, it should be easy to prove whereupon it would become part of conventional medicine. Why hasn't this happened?
