Episode description

In this week's episode, The Mystics adjust their perspective on the wild history of chiropractic care 🩻 Meet D.D. Palmer, the original back-cracking spiritualist who thought he could cure your sickness and reserve your spot in heaven with just his hands 👐🏼🙌🏼 Spoiler alert: his heavenly aspirations eventually led to more earthly consequences... like jail time 🚓 But don’t worry, it’s not all out-of-joint. Amber brings us up to speed on how chiropractic care has evolved into a respected, science-backed field that helps thousands of people manage chronic pain and other ailments every year 😌 Join us for a spine-snapping, laugh-inducing journey that goes from "Did he really think that?!" to "Wow, that actually works!"—all served with our signature dose of humor and good vibes. You’ll be cracking up (pun absolutely intended). 🦴
