A well-trained and experienced chiropractor can indeed help with chronic back pain - he or she cannot, however, cure anything. They're rather an expensive choice, too. You could get just as much relief through the services of a licensed physical therapist - and the physical therapist's services are often quite a bit cheaper.
NO Chiropractor can treat ANYTHING other than backache - they are not trained properly to treat anything else - and their favorite pseudo-ailment is "subluxation" - which many Chiropractors admit does not even exist! They also cannot treat ADD and ADHD, which certainly DO exist. Nor can they treat otitis media, a real ear infection - though a great many of them pretend they can.
A Chiropractor is most often very empathetic with his/her patients, unlike many conventional physicians who all too often tend to leave patients feel rushed and un-cared for. So if you don't mind paying premium prices for a good bedside manner and a bit of manipulation and a nice backrub - go with the Chiropractor. If y'want healing - get your orthopedic doctor to refer you to a physical therapist!
Yes, I've been to a Chiropractor for backache - knowing that's all they can treat, I've been able to avoid being duped into any other "services" offered at that clinic. And yes, I'm a licensed health professional too...

From past experience I wish I would have married a chiropractor. I sometimes suffer severe headaches that completely immobilize me and the only thing that saves me is a chiropractor. The only way i'll go though is if they use the spinal manipulation. they really work wonders if your having back and head pain.

Maybe you had been concentrating so rough it gave you a headache. If you were not seeing spots and also you might sleep via the headache I would not fear an excessive amount of approximately it. The morning heavy eyes is on the whole thoroughly unrelated to the plucking. Probably simply worn out. If you continue to suppose bizarre in a pair hours- you can be coming down with anything. Also, the creativeness is lovely strong. If you're superstitious- you can be developing your possess phrases for the superstition.

If the cause of your pain is related to musculoskeletal in orgin , then chiropratic manipulation may help. However, neck adjustments should be avoided in my opinion. Other causes of headache could be lack of caffeine, stress, trigger points, nerve impingement, need for eyeware or intracranial lesions. If , as I indicated, the orgin is truly muscular based then with the manipulation you should experience relief or improvement. If not perhaps you then should seek an M.D. 's opinion

I went to the chiropractor the other day. Spinal re-alignment. I recommend it to everyone. My son went too. Instant pain relief. Got a kinked neck, backache? You've got to find a good one though.

yes. yes. yes. yes. yes. every person should go to a chiro, you will be amazed. i've been going for 2 years, within 2 visits at 5 minutes a visit, my terrible lower back pain while driving was cured, my sleep is better and i feel better. btw... did you know that ADD and ADHD don't exist. they are just kids with messed up necks, preventing the brain sending messages to the body correctly, causing learning difficulties etc.

I was sceptical too until I saw one who happened to be a friend of mine. He did wonders for my back! There were times I had a hard time walking. I also see a clinical massage therapist who has helped to keep my muscles loose and limber. Best wishes!
