Have had a few adjustments. Doesn't hurt. Just relax and don't fight it. Yes, you'll hear crackily sounds. No worries.

I think part of the healing feeling comes from being in a place where you can actually relax the muscles. Give it a few adjustments see if you feel any better.

Do some research on-line if you can make sure your doctor is not a quack offering free tickets to something for acident victums. I say one for the first time 8 months ago and man he worked wonders. relax don't think! then it's all over and you will feel better if not in hours in a couple days

I used to have a good chiro, he died and the guy they got to replace him blew out a disk in my neck. DO not let anyone bend you in a way that you feel pain. use your best judgement

:eek:

Thanx guys.:)

This is a husband/wife practice. They were recommended and there wasn't any accident literature in the waiting room. Good signs hopefully.

It is all experimental, as being a very scientific person and medically inclined I have always had my doubts, but I have a small curvature and am hoping to prevent further warping and get some stretching/excercise advice. So I don't have future problems.

But I tense up and laugh whenever I try to get someone to crack my back- it has never happened- or even rub it- I die laughing. It shall be interesting.

There is a place for both chiro and traditional physicians. The problem occured when you had some chiros suggest that you don't ever need to seek help from your GP and should never get ill if you see the chiro.

IMO, everyone should at least visit a chiro once. But, it has to be one that someone you trust, trusts. Adjustments do not stop you from getting a cold, the flu or whatever, but they do help with your health and well-being.

GO...you'll never regret it or at least I haven't. You'll be a little stiff or sore for a day or two after your first chiro adjustment, but it's well worth it IMHO

I have a great chiro & as p-gon mentioned they should work closely with my GP. It has kept me from having back surgery to date. However, if I ever need the back surgery, both dr.'s recommended the same surgeon :D

All of our family goes at least once a month for an adjustment, very relaxing.

Just a thought...you might want to look into getting a Myofascial Release done as well. If your back is out of wack...odds are it is your muscles pulling it that way. The Chiro will re-allign everything but the muscles will eventually start pulling again. With a Myofascial Release they basically feel for any trouble spots (small bumps in your muscles) and push on them basically as hard as they can until the bump goes away.

My Sister does it for family in her free time (is an OT...so she does have medically schooling to back it up) and everyone that she has done it to swears by it. Just be warned...depending on how bad your muscles are it will hurt like hell if they do it right. My sister brings tears to her Husbands eyes when she does it for him (he is a tractor mechanic...so he is hard on his back)...and he is a tough guy.

Just my .02

08-05-2006, 10:47 PM

Thanks Doc.:)

No, I at this point I can't scientifically see how it would prevent viruses or the like. However, I can see how proper spinal alignment can help your body achieve optimum homeostasis (for lack of a better term) or in my case the manipulation can prevent further curvature. I live in the city of the Edgar Cayce Foundation. So the debate has been well thought through.;)

If a treatment makes sense to me I do it- or at least try it for awhile.

For instance- All the new medical findings of antioxidant advantages and the link with brightly colored fruits and vegetables have been in the homeopathic world forever. But then again, common sense tells you that those things are natural for a human being to find and eat and can be nothing but good for you anyway. We always do so well in feeding our pets what they would eat in thier natural environment but some people never give thought to what we would eat in ours. Though I appreciate a nummy treat here and there. Point being- there are lots of philosophies and I think them through regardless of their origin- but science is always good.

Furthermore, the mind has a tremendous influence on your health (placebo effect in example) so I'm going with whatever I think works at this point.;)

In other words, (what a freaky rant?!-sorry :D) I can easily tune out anything weird.

CP-glad you had a good time, hope you get a good follow-up, but watch for the sales pitch...ED, just more ignorance. You seem to find it easy to state things that are simply not truth as though they are the simple fact.

Fact was the most common default of loans was of students while still in college was chiros. Not just across the board default of any profession.

It also had the highest attrition rate in the healthcare industry during school. Says nothing about the profession, except that in the late 90's the average GPA for the average applicate was below 3.0 while all other healthcare professions held averages around 3.5.

I've rounded stuff and might not be exact, but I am much more on target and can 100% guarantee I am more knowledgeable in this subject that you and maybe even Doc. I have to know these things. If it was a fact that chiros defaulted on their loans after they started practicing, that would severely limit my business.

There's a difference between chumps dropping out of school and not paying their school loans and "the most common profession to default on their college student loans is chiropractitioners"

We have a great Chiropractor here in Cabo. He used to be the chiropractor for the Raiders Team. He retired and moved down here a couple years ago, then opened a small office with limited hours for chiropractic service.

I have used Chiripractors in the past and had some limited relief, but was always nervous about them injuring me by making the wrong adjustment. I am a desk jockey and experience back and neck pain flare ups all the time. This Chiropractor is super gentle, non invasive and has really helped me keep me aligned and virtually pain free. This guy really knows what he is doing and does so in a gentle, soft spoken manner. His office is only open a few hours per day and takes no appointments, so sometimes there is a decent wait. He charges a donation of $10 per visit and specifically does not monitor the donation box, so anybody that needs chiropractic service can get it from him, regardless of whether or not they can afford it.

This guy is a model citizen that provides an excellent service to our community in an unselfish manner.
If you are ever in Cabo, look him up: ROBERT JAY SMITH CHIROPRACTIC
