I have recently had a few appointments with a chiro and I have a very positive outlook towards it. I have had back issues forever and have researched many different methods and consulted with my doctor to get their professional opinion. As long as you go to a good place, they will let you know if they can help you or not. Mine suggested chiro, massage, and physical therapy and that it will take some time before I feel better. I would highly suggest it, but just like anything regarding your health research research research.

i go to an osteopath. they are so much more gentle and very soothing compared to a chiropracter.
and like, if yew go to a chiropracter, its likely yewll have to go to one for the rest of yewr life.
so yeah,
go for an osteopath is my opinion

I'm not sure about Chiropractors but when I first met my hubby he was going to a Chiropractor for arthritis in his shoulder. He was in chronic pain all the time. Then this guy gave him a sample of this stuff called MAXGXL which has helped him tremendously. I can get you more information if you want. When he started taking this stuff he got his own website to promote it but he doesn't bother because he isn't interested in selling it, just using it. But I know that when Gord takes his "MAX" he is fine, when he's off it for a few days the pain starts coming back. And a couple of months ago he did refer it to a guy at his work and now that guy is pain-free too.

I have found that they make you worse before they make you better! Most people only go a couple of times, because they feel its not doing them any good. But I have always found if you can stick it out for the full course of treatment, you will feel a vast improvement.

Wow, all I can say is that as a chiropractor, we have not been teaching out patients what we are actually doing. I'm sorry to hear so many misconceptions on this topic. I hope to set a few things straight. First and foremost, chiropractors do not heal anyone and neither do MDs, osteopaths, naturopaths, massage therapists, or physical therapists. The body heals itself, while the physician is doing his/her best to assist the body to work as optimally as possible.

The best explanation of chiropractic is that we aren't actually even re-aligning the spine. What we are doing is locating where the spine is not moving (restricted segmental range of motion) and then applying a force to increase motion in that area. When motion is restored to the "locked" segment, then the body can function at a higher level and thus heal more efficiently. This increased motion is also what allows the body to start aligning itself in a more efficient manner. This is shown in post xrays where we can see that scoliosis is decreasing as well as many other "mis-alignments". This is a theory called "The Minimum Energy Theory" which basically states that the body will always assume the most efficient position possible given it's current status.

As to the statement someone made about chiropractors causing arthritis, that is not possible if the chiropractor is doing his job. Arthritis builds up in a joint that has NOT been working well for years. If the chiropractor can successfully increase the motion in that joint, then that person will have a slower rate of degeneration and arthritis accumulation. Don't get me wrong, we all are going to age and have some degree of degeneration. The problem is that most of us are doing it was too fast.

I personally use the most scientific and objective approach to chiropractic that there is. It is called Multiple Impulse Therapy. I use a computer aided instrument called the PulStar (Google PulStar or PulStarFRAS or pulstarcare.com)to locate the areas of decreased motion in the spine and then to treat it with multiple impulses until that segment is moving better again. I then re-scan the patient with the instrument to show exactly how much better the spine is moving. I regularly get improvements of 10-30% better motion with a single visit. This also accounts for an amazing rate of recovery from pain (research documented <4 visits for pain resolution).

No one health care field has all the answers, otherwise we'd all be perfectly healthy and only that profession would be around for health care. However, when properly utilized, chiropractic is an amazing therapy to assist our bodies in their natural and appropriate mechanisms of healing.

becareful with them, i always had a bad gut feeling about what they do.
I went to one for several months and from the time he started to crack my back i was in extreme pain and he said i had to go through this time to get better. I was going to 2x weekly appointments and i was getting worse instead of better, then he wanted me to come 3 - 4 x weekly and i ended up stopping going there after a few months on intense care.

2.5 years later my back is in extreme agony and i have neevr had these pains before, i believe he messes my back up for life, i am in agony pain.

I am sorry but i have no belief for chiropractic.


My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing

Well it doesn't require belief. Chiropractic is a science. You may not believe in gravity but you are still under it's effects. I am sorry that you had a bad experience with chiropractic and perhaps you didn't have a chiropractic problem. However, if you have a chiropractic problem and didn't get better, then it was a problem with the chiropractor not the science of chiropractic.

Once again, I hate to hear about the pain you are suffering with. Good luck to you with finding relief.

i realy disbealive to Chiropractors
