#ChiropracticAwarenessWeek day 3. It's important to be aware that there is no good evidence that the treatment shown here (chiropractic activator) provides any benefit

#ChiropracticAwarenessWeek day 2. Unfortunately, some chiropractors offer their treatments for babies. There is no evidence that #chiropractic provides any benefit for any infant condition and no good reason to take any baby to a chiropractor complementaryandalternative.wordpress.com/2019/01/14/u...

To be clear, this is a new product that Novavax is trying to introduce to the market with a study of a different product from 2021. New products require new clinical studies. Under this administration, we are prioritizing the Gold Standard of Science--not what saves pharma companies "tens of millions of dollars." Headline: "FDA Asks Vaccine Maker to Complete New Clinical Trial for Delayed Covid-19 shot"

Again, they're trying to take away our vaccines.

From the head of the FDA, a gross misrepresentation of the annual process of updating a proven vaccine to target new disease strains.

His plan would make it impossible to get seasonal flu and Covid shots, and of course he knows this.

UK Chiropractors and osteopaths are not doctors yet many give the impression that they are I’m sure that many of you will have come across the tragic case of John Lawler who died as a result of chiropractic treatment. The case has received much media attention during the inquest that too…

#ChiropracticAwarenessWeek day 1. If you remember nothing else from this week, remember this: chiropractors are not doctors. Here is an example of the very serious harm that can be caused when people are misled into believing they are: complementaryandalternative.wordpress.com/2019/11/19/u...

Homeopathy doesn’t fail, the practitioner does By Prof. Raphael Nyarkotey OBU During the 2025 World Homeopathy Day celebration in Ghana, a profound statement echoed across the halls of the gathering: ‘Homeopathy doesn’t fail, the practitioner does...

Actually, #homeopathy is a complete failure and that's due to the ideas behind it not the practitioner: thebftonline.com/2025/04/20/h... It may have seemed sensible in the late 18th century but we now KNOW that the ideas behind homeopathy are absurd in the extreme

This response alone shows how deeply into the homeopathy believing rabbit hole you are. There is no point in further discussion

Will you still use homeopathy when you learn what it is? Homeopathic medicines are everywhere. There are remedies for colds, fevers, depression, insect bites, headaches, warts, menstrual cramps, food poisoning,

Lol! You want me to provide a reference to show that water doesn't have memory?!

DAVV to start homoeopathy clinical research unit | Indore News - Times of India Indore: Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) on Friday received approval from the Central Council for Research in Homeopathy (CCRH), Delhi.

#homeopathy is a fake treatment, the principles of which conflict with many aspects of science. It is therefore absurd to create a new "Clinical Research Unit (CRU) for Homoeopathy". Even worse, they are proposing this nonsense for cancer, asthma & others: www.google.com/amp/s/timeso...

A new review confirms that chiropractic is based on wishful thinking, very poor science and a denial of the most obvious facts.

To conclude, osteopathy remains deeply entrenched in pseudoscientific approaches and treatment modalities. Misleading claims that go far beyond the expertise of osteopaths are worryingly common. Put this in the same box as #chiropractic: best avoided!

Finally we have the treatment approaches. Cranial and visceral osteopathy are both made up nonsense. Claiming to "treat" the organs, presumably through visceral osteopathy, is also completely absurd.

Then there's the claimed benefits. These are essentially all false claims with no good evidence to support them. Claims about improving immune system, circulation, blood pressure are particularly concerning as these are serious issues that there is no way osteopathy could treat

Firstly, there's the pseudoscientific marketing claims like gentle, holistic, treating the root cause, natural, etc. These are meaningless but are widely used to promote many alternative therapies

Manual Osteopathy is a gentle, holistic, safe and effective form of hands-on therapy which features the interrelationship between structure and function of the human body. The primary focus is the musculoskeletal system (muscles, fascia, ligaments and joints), organs and the central nervous system. Manual Osteopaths do not concentrate only on the problem area but the root cause of pain. They believe in the body’s natural ability to heal itself and are trained to treat conditions based on anatomy, physiology, pathology and how they relate to the osteopathic principles. They will evaluate and return balance to the musculoskeletal, cranial, cardiovascular, visceral and neurological systems of the body.

#osteopathy is one of those treatment approaches that can look legitimate but once you dig deeper it's clear that it's rooted in pseudoscience and misleading claims. I think this is a great example of all that's wrong with osteopathy: osteopathycanada.ca Let's take a look. 🧵

That nonsense has been reposted 5.4k times! 😬

Happy New Year! In 2025 please remember that the following treatment modalities are deeply rooted in pseudoscience and have little or no evidence of effectiveness for any condition: homeopathy, acupuncture and other parts of TCM, chiropractic, osteopathy, reiki, reflexology

Homeopathy is the air guitar of medicine.

This is just a small subset of the many misleading claims from osteopaths. It's worth noting that this includes misleading claims from osteopathic institutions as well as individual osteopaths. Unfortunately, belief in pseudoscience like cranial is widespread in osteopathy

Amongst the most frequent misleading claims are those relating to the treatment of babies. This often involves the nonsense that is cranial osteopathy. There is no situation in which it is appropriate to take a baby to an osteopath

UK osteopaths also think they can treat #asthma. This is a potential risk to any patients who choose this completely inappropriate treatment option: complementaryandalternative.wordpress.com/2019/02/11/u...

UK osteopaths continue to operate far outside their expertise: they now think they can treat autism! There are many and serious problems with the osteopathic profession in the UK. Even taking this into account, I was shocked and appalled to find that some of them now think they can treat autism. I…

A small subset of the many misleading claims made by osteopaths. For starters, some osteopaths think they can treat #autism. Yes, really: complementaryandalternative.wordpress.com/2021/10/11/u... This is ridiculous and it's appalling that osteopaths are exploiting this vulnerable patient group

#osteopathy is really 2 separate professions. Osteopaths (DOs) in the US are actual doctors just like MDs and most of them use little or no osteopathy. Osteopaths in most other countries are alternative therapists similar to chiropractors. Misleading claims are common 🧵

Bioresonance "was unable to differentiate between a wet towel and the healthy volunteers"! 😂

No UK osteopath or chiropractor should "specialise" in paediatrics. Cranial #osteopathy may well be "gentle" but it's also nonsense with no evidence of effectiveness. Why do these silly ideas persist? complementaryandalternative.wordpress.com/2020/11/09/m...
