Is it time for chiropractors to begin marketing themselves as manual therapists in order to fit in to some medical model?

For the past 6 weeks I’d been adjusting a patient who had suffered a severe injury and I had finally succeeded in totally clearing his spine of subluxations and restoring motion and function, when I innocently asked him to tell me about the fall that caused this spinal problem. As he proceeded to describe the injury in detail, his spinal muscles began to tighten and I watched the same subluxation pattern strongly reassert itself…
We all know the Healing potential of a skillfully delivered spinal adjustment given at the right time in the right place.
