Oso planning to go pro
I have been using one for 28 years. One of the reasons I am so well adjusted. I go once every few weeks and the day after a good fire. For me, an adjustment cuts my recovery time in half.
Don't allow neck adjustments.
Don't allow neck adjustments.You don't need adjustments based on images. You need adjustments/treatment based on symptoms.

They want to call themselves health professionals, which is fine in the event they know their own limitations. Chronic back pain adjustments with positive results is good. Acute pain adjustment with no improvement over several sessions and yet tells you you need 10 more is bad.Lastly, I hope I don't have to remind anyone that babies/infants/children should not be getting adjustments.
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny. Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.
ZFB's chiro (62 yo guy) has him strip down before going to work, which I've always thought was odd.I wouldn't let a chiro touch my neck because I have a cadaver bone, titanium plate, and screws in my spine... can be DANGEROUS! Anything more than a rug n tug and I'd recommend talking to some neurosurgeon's first to get their views on chiros
I have also used acupuncture. I use that more for tendonitis away from my spine. Elbows, shoulders. I used it once at the suggestion of my chiropractor for a sciatica issue that just wouldn't release.I do the maintenance. Still able to fight fire, coach multiple sports, walk 18 holes carrying a bag in under 3 hours, well into my 50s. I don't give chiropractic full credit, bit it certainly has helped.
I go to someone I've seen for 20 years. Nuff said.There are some really bad ones though too, just like MD's. Good Chiro's have really good nutritional education...better than MD's.
Be wary especially of chiros (but sometimes DOs who do manual manipulation) who claim that spinal adjustments and manipulation of nerves can cure/alleviate nearly every condition of the body including diseases like diabetes
There is a chiropractor with kids at my kids school. They don't vaccinate because chiropractic.
