This is not an argument against chiropractic care
Chiropractic adjustments provide meaningful relief for many patients with joint-related spinal issues. Many excellent decompression providers hold chiropractic licenses. This comparison exists to clarify that decompression is a distinct mechanical intervention — not a subset of chiropractic philosophy — so patients can evaluate it on its own merits regardless of their feelings about chiropractic care.
