The world of chiropractic medicine often splits opinions, and a recent video on Reddit titled "Have a Break" has sparked considerable debate. The video captures a chiropractor performing an adjustment, prompting a storm of reactions from viewers. The brief clip features the chiropractor instructing, "Okay, just loosen it a little bit. You can feel that there?" This seemingly routine procedure left viewers both fascinated and horrified.

One user shared a personal horror story, stating, "I F’ing hate chiropractors. Ever since I threw my back out moving furniture and went to a chiropractor. He gave me an adjustment that involved quick forceful twisting movements of my lower back. I couldn’t walk for weeks. He never took an X-ray or MRI or anything. Just went right for the adjustment." This comment underscores the potential risks of chiropractic adjustments, particularly when proper diagnostic measures are not taken.

Another viewer highlighted the dramatic reaction of the person in the video, saying, "I just saw white light." This sentiment was echoed by another user who remarked, "Life left her body then and there. Just look at her eyes."

Comments also referenced cultural touchstones and humor. One user quipped, "Ah, you're finally awake!" while another drew a parallel to a famous martial artist, "Steven Seagal technique, ain't coming back from that." The video's impact was such that it led one viewer to comment, "*\"...I... I...I can see...HIM \"*", adding a touch of the supernatural to the mix.

However, the potential dangers of such procedures were not overlooked. One commenter warned, "Dont do this especially to the neck, there have been multiple situations where people got injured or even died." Another user added, "…and that’s that quickest way to get a cervical/neck fracture…nice dreams though! 😆"

The authenticity of the video’s sounds was also questioned, with one user noting, "I remember reading up that a lot of those videos just add in the crack sounds in post."

Humor and skepticism aside, the video also prompted serious concerns about the safety and efficacy of chiropractic treatments. One user humorously asked, "Did she survived?" encapsulating the mix of fear and fascination that the video elicited.

For those intrigued by the history and controversies surrounding chiropractic medicine, one user provided a valuable resource, linking to the [history of chiropractic medicine](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_chiropractic).
