Therapize me this a-way

So I had a client ask me after I had treated her somewhat unsuccesfully for her adductor pain where she should go next: A physio or a chiro or another RMT. I said I don't know...Do you know how chiro or physio's would handle an adductor problem

So I had a client that I treated for piriformis pain and I said to her: Well, thats something your chiro can't do for you. But then my chiro friend was like" oh yeah, we would just do some ultrasound and maybe some soft tissue manip and some SI adjustment.
So then I wonder what is that we RMT's do that nobody else does? Or do we just do some things better?

So I asked Thao (my chiro pathology teacher) how she would treat a muscle issue and she said "No probs, just use one of the modalities like Electric Stim or Ultrasound, maybe do some soft tissue, and adjust the joint above and below"
So I was like " damn... where can I get one of those... I mean we work so hard to get a release and these 'machines' get the job done prontofast

hmm...
