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?

Chiropracty uses many of the same principles as acupressure and acupuncture. 99% of what they do is massage and joint manipulation. The best thing that chiropracty has going for it is that it does not rely on drugs. Rather than giving a patient muscle relaxants, the chiropractor stretches the muscles. It hurts like all that is unholy, but it worked very well for me. Best of all, I learned all sorts of stretches and sleeping/sitting positions to help prevent any future problems.
