Chiropractors -- Part Two

[nekosensei]

I talked to doomsey this evening, and he's a bit skeptical on the whole me going to a chiropractor thing. His reasoning is that he thinks it is a quack science. I guess I'm waffling on this a bit because I a bit nervous that I'll end up with someone incompetent who will make my neck worse instead of better. On the other hand, if a chiropractor can do something to help me out, it would be better than sitting at home and taking muscle relaxants when I'm hurty. And I can't take them on days when I have work anyway because I'm not supposed to drive when I'm on them.

So...I guess...if in doubt, write an LJ poll and ask my friends' list, huh?

I'm by no means an expert on medical science. But after I started going, I found that one of my friends, who is a traditional doctor of medicine, also went to the same chiropractor. This particular chiropractor was recommended by the doctors sister, who is a practicing chiropractor.

If its good enough for medical doctors, and all the assorted sports types (who make their living by using their body as a finely tuned instrument)that forestdruid mentioned in his comment to your previous post, it's good enough for me.

That being said, it's symptomatic relief, and probably not addressing the underlying problem. But neither is popping anti-inflammatories or muscle relaxants. Your mileage may vary...
