You might argue barbershops are better.

1. They are cheaper.

2. You get a haircut.

3. Community.

4. They are trained in the real world, and within the community they are serving.

5. The barber's incentives are aligned with yours. If they solve your problem, you're still a repeat customer. In the case of therapists and chiropractors, they are incentivized to manage your problem indefinitely or to find new problems.
