Medical licensing laws restrict access to more affordable options like chiropractors.

Americans spend $300 billion annually on pain treatment. Much of this is on treatment for back and neck pain, which two-thirds of us have sought at some point.

US News and World Report argues that a substantial amount of this money could be saved if more Americans were given easier access to chiropractic and physical therapy services.
