Those people started doing it becaus a ghost told a guy that the magical energy flows through the spine and every illness happens because the spine is misaligned and needs to be straighten. You don’t need a doctor to tell you the merit of all that

Physical therapists have a medical degree. Chiropractors go to a 6 week scam cult training camp.
Calling yourself a Chiropractor gets you way more business than calling yourself a physical therapist - even if you are a physical therapist.
Maybe in the land of horse paste, but everywhere else physiotherapists are referred by doctors. No doctor would refer a chiropractor.
You’d be surprised how many people don’t know this and seek chiropractors directly instead of going to a doctor first.
