Lol, never seen a dreamcatcher in a Chiropractor office... I would turn around and walk right out. I've had great luck with chiro and know many others who have to. Golf was mentioned... as someone who used to run 100+ mile weeks I can vouch for chiro helping performance and keeping the body fine tuned. A chiro only knows what they know though, just like a surgeon knows what they know, a MD knows what they know, and a PT knows what they know. Each has their situation. Be careful with insurance. I made a change to heath health insurance a couple of yrs ago and they asked if I went to the chiropractor. She said if I went more than X number of times a year they considered it a preexisting condition and their coverage of future back problems could be affected.

I've always thought chiropractors = quacks. I know what they do for "medical training".
That said, I've had a pinched nerve on the left side of my neck for months. It gets pretty fucking old not being able to turn that direction normally.
Am I putting my longtime cervical health at risk if I allow some douche who was trained somewhere "offshore" to "align my spine"? I am sure I can't even get in to see a chiro now, much less a qualified Dr. who would then refer to me a laid off physical therapist.

Chiros are non essential.
Love the chiros. Some are snake oil salesman.
The good ones are awesome.

When I’ve been in serious pain I would say they are essential.

I do daily exercises for neck and back that take about 1/2 hour. He also does xrays to start. I have gone to two of them in the same system. The first one moved from St Cloud to Alex. I now go to Becker and prefer him. He and I don’t agree on the organic food and I said it is best we don’t discuss it. |

A good chiropractor is great Over the years moving around I've been to 5 different one. 3 of them were great one was fair the other not so good. After one or 2 treatments you know if they are good or not. I hope you find a good one.

My old Buz partner found a bad one that led to fuse vert in neck, and unplugging some of his nerves is his back, elbow and hand. His hand tingled red hit for weeks before he found a doctor to offer some sort of fix.

There's a lot of those stories out there. I'll probably just hope the fucking nerve un-pinches itself |

I wasted three years of feeling better. I haven’t went in three weeks and I can feel the pain creeping back in. I may break quarantine and go in Monday. That being said I think some of them are quacks and have heard lots of horror stories. |

Your chiropractor thinks organic food will fix your neck pain? It’s part of the whole health thing. We did have a pleasant discussion about raw milk. |
