There's probably lots of debate regarding it, but I can certainly tell you what my colleague's doctor told him; my colleague has a slipped disc that if it gets worse, could potentially paralyze him from the neck down. He asked his doctor if he should see a chiropractor and the doctor told him there's a 33% chance it'll do nothing, a 33% chance his condition will improve, and a 33% chance it'll get worse.
Chiropractors however are not medical doctors, and as far as I'm concerned that's where it stops. They can get a degree after studying aspects of the body like musculature and ligaments, but I wouldn't risk my health going to one.
