Answer 1

Very positive experience."Adjustments"can relieve pain in the back and neck as well as other areas.Massage therapy and Chiropractic care compliment one another and probably should be part of any preventive/rehab program.

Answer 2

I've been helped by chiropractic care. you do need to find someone who knows what they are doing. a sign in the yard and a piece of paper on the wall isn't enough to go by. do some checking around ask people you know and trust if they know a GOOD chiropractor.the benefits of properly performed chiropractic work are incredible.

Answer 3

Never believed in them. Saw a show on TV once with hidden cameras and some of the stuff they were doing was ridiculous. My hubby went to one about a year ago for back and neck pain much to my protests. They took an x ray and decided that he needed realignment. The pain worsened and I made him go to an ortho. Took and x ray and by what they saw , did an MRI now needs back surgery. How come the chiropractor did not see this? Because they do not know what they are looking for!! Waste of time and money. QUACKS

Answer 4

That is a proffesion where an awful lot of good intentioned but flakey people tend to congregate.

There are about 5 good ones in every 100.

Answer 5

I used to be in a lot of pain cause of a car accident and 2 falls. After going to a chiropractor for treatments, I am a lot better.

Answer 6

i from experience don't like them i went to one for a year and it seemed like my injury was getting worse so i got out of it and went to a physical therapist and i was better within months all the chiropractor does is snap your bones and the psychical therapist massaged the injured area and showed me how to do exercise to make my injury better
