  • And aren't you looking to have a musculoskeletal condition treated? If so, given your own admission that evidence exists - then what's stopping you? yes there is a canon of people making claims, but just avoid them.
    Think of it as a yardstick or indicator of the whole. One rotten apple and all that.

    Going back to your original request for a recommendation for a physio, you could have easily made it without running your mouth about how osteopathy or whatever else is woo hoo and all that shit.
    I shall be sure to run any questions past you first, so that you can vet them.

    But you didn't do that, because from the evidence given you're clearly a stubborn sob who has made a decision about a whole profession on the basis of what some of them claim but cannot back up. And then you go on talking about "evidence" that you've never produced. My problem isn't with your decision, it's that you may influence others who may believe your weak-ass claims and not do their own research.
    I would fully expect anyone to do their own research - Why wouldn't they? It's quite possible that it would take them the same way though, isn't it.

    Your problem is completely with my decision, as you are somehow expecting to make a value judgement on what research I have made on my decision to preclude an option for my treatment. My decision is only good enough for you if I can convince you of the reasoning for that decision.

    You can make your decision about anything and form and opinion and that's cool, but there just isn't any reason for you to go round talking shit about how a whole profession is woo-hoo without provocation.
    No, there's no reason at all.

    Other than in the Venn diagram of osteopathy and evidence based treatments, in the intersection is lower back pain, and some other musculo-skeletal conditions. The rest is all bollocks - which is something you're saying too, unless I'm mistaken.

    That just makes you a cunt.
    I think you'll find that there is a whole lot more to me that makes me a cunt, than just calling out a practice for being woowoo.

    Is there more to you that makes you whiny and butthurt?
