No, I have never been to a chiropractor, but I grew up hearing that they were quacks. I seem to recall my parents not having much faith in them. I don't necessarily believe they are quacks. But a lot of people I know go to them and have wonderful things to say about their treatment. I think chiroproctors do a lot of good, but it is hard to dispel an attitude that that you've grown up with. I don't know what caused my parents to have that opinion, maybe a bad experience with one, but I heard it more than once.

It will be interesting to see if my doctor will recommend I go to one. I am thinking he will not.

But, if he can't help me, I will willing to try anything at this point. Thanks for the suggestion, ((((((yorkie)))))).

My husband swore by chiropractors and would get aggravated with me when I wouldn’t go. They did help him with headaches and back pain. But he wouldn’t go for days (like they want you to). He would get an adjustment and tell them he didn’t have time to come back. He was on the road a lot and didn’t have time to go and go. One adjustment would do the trick for him.

I agree a chiropractor might help but DO NOT wait for a chiropractor to be recommended by your MD !!!!

You will sooner hear Obama tell us that he was born in India & he is only 15 years old!

I have numerous friends with miracle stories on back, neck, extremities (sciatica etc) problems that melted into calm after treatments.

I am a big time believer - in fact my chiropractor is my primary physician
