I understand we disagree on this.

Depends on who you ask. I have had acupuncture and sacral cranial energy work on me-there was physical response one could see -change in a body part with each. Ask an md -and often they will call it woo. Ask a chiropractor what they do? Ask an md about chiropractors. Ask people who have been helped by any of them. I think western medicine is a lot more woo than it admits. Certainly therapy is in my opinion -and yet some people claim it has helped them.
