Very limited literature on chiropractic profession’s understanding of significance of touch

Laying on of hands a huge placebo factor: tinyurl.com/4vdwdnn6 and @EdzardErnst flagged up touch + placebo effect 20+ yrs ago: tinyurl.com/5n6pfec7 #SinghBCA
Understanding chiropractic career choice: A national study of students in the United Kingdom tinyurl.com/nv5e63xj
Applications to study have declined. Those still applying are primarily motivated by personal exposure. #SinghBCA
More DUAL FLUENCY nonsense: ‘Scaffolding chiropractic philosophy across the curriculum to foster lifelong learning’ tinyurl.com/nv5e63xj
Modules were systematically reviewed for philosophical integration...and evidence-informed reasoning... #SinghBCA
'DUAL FLUENCY' nonsense. Chiropractors can't have it both ways. Their theories cannot be both dogmatically held vitalistic constructs and be scientific at the same time. #SinghBCA #quackademia #uselessregulation
DAMNING “Scotland College of Chiropractic’s curriculum…is now dual fluency. Graduates need to document and defend care in regulator-preferred terminology while still understanding, researching, and somehow communicating subluxation-based models” tinyurl.com/4xwrw2m9 #SinghBCA
Int'l movement: commitment to vertebral subluxation-based chiropractic extends well beyond N. America. Says ‘protecting a profession’s identity and demanding scientific accountability aren’t competing obligations…must be capable of doing both’ tinyurl.com/2whp223b #SinghBCA
Chiropractic student writes article criticising Uni of S. Denmark’s Chiropractic Clinical Biomechanics program for lack of a student clinic. Adjustments were delivered only as ‘mock impulses’ under scant supervision tinyurl.com/mpauy99f #SinghBCA
Dubious Balloon-Assisted Craniofacial Manipulation, aka Endonasal Cranial Therapy, Nasospecific, or NeuroCranial Restructuring (NCR), now approved within chiropractic scope of practice in S. Carolina tinyurl.com/26hdvz48 #SinghBCA

.@edinburghpaper You really need to do your homework about the charity, the Scotland College of Chiropractic. See here tinyurl.com/3pb2jfa5 The NHS will not fund chiropractic because clinical evidence from systemic reviews does not support it. #SinghBCA #quackademia
FURTHER DECEPTION: Scotland College of Chiropractic “…subluxation-aware practice can be integrated compliantly…Prepare graduates to speak two dialects: the regulator’s, and the profession’s” tinyurl.com/4xwrw2m9 #SinghBCA cc @EdzardErnst @Majikthyse @David_Colquhoun
Scotland College of Chiropractic: "rigorous quality assurance" "clinical excellence" "critical thinking" edinburghnews.scotsman.com/s… "evidence-informed curriculum" Abject quackery. Chiropractic has no scientific basis. #SinghBCA #uselessregulation

NB. Two years ago, 93% of students at this 'university' were taking the Chiropractic Masters degree. It has now been ranked 8th the UK for Health Professions in the Guardian University Guide 2027. #SinghBCA #BewareTheSpinalTrap
Of 2,476 faculty, staff and students at a chiropractic college, 46% to 69% hadn’t read or were unsure of the quality of scientific evidence for 11 chiropractic-related journals, and 51% lacked confidence in recognising predatory journals tinyurl.com/kdu8dwht #SinghBCA
