Alternative Therapies

Solving back problems and more with the help of a chiropractor

My chiropractor is a MIRACLE WORKER! I honestly do not know what I would do without him. I was a skeptic, having worked for orthopedic surgeons and heard many 'quack stories' about chiropractors. I am sure, like any profession, there are 'good ones and bad ones' but I have had a completely amazing positive experience.

I do not have major medical problems. I consider myself sort of a garden-variety patient, although I do have occasional migraines, as well as stress I apparently carry in my back and neck (some from- um- gardening!). When I leave my chiropractor's office I feel like a completely different person. The adjustments, soft tissue work and other techniques I experience are all completely positive and beneficial.

I cannot say enough good things about it. I don't even really think chiropractic should be listed as an 'alternative' therapy but I guess that's still what it's considered. If you are reading this and have not tried chiropractic I highly recommend it!
