The reason they stay in business is because it is easy to find people who don't mind getting a year of chiro or massages every week for free.

As i said it would be my preference to see a CMT. As i said one with about a thousand references. I happen to know a certified massage therapist who has helped a lot of auto accident victims.
Often her clients have had conventional medical treatment and still suffer pain. I can assure you she is not "scum" but somone who has a genuine gift for healing who has chosen this as her lifes profession. She has a BA in a related field and could have made much more $ in that. My understanding, as the law changed eight years or so ago CMTs can not directly bill insurance companys so im not sure how the CMT's can scam the insurance companys. The CMTs have to wait until settlement to get paid from the client not the insurance company the exception being doctor ordered treatment. The CMT I know is of the highest moral character. If the client she is treating shows no signs of improvment within a year she will not see that client anymore. The characterization you have written above is competely untrue in all aspects in reference to the CMT I know.
