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?

"miracle" cured me!

[saint-vaelor.livejournal.com]

I had unknowingly injured myself a work, like it didn't hurt when I did it, really, and it took time to manifest.

Later, the evening of the following day or so, I started having chest pains. The sort of pains one would describe if asked what hallmarks of heart attack felt like. I couldn't breathe deeply, that hurt the worst. By the next morning, I could barely move.
Now, I couldn't afford to miss work, then, I had no benefits and every hour I didn't work was an hour I didn't get paid. I needed fixed, fast.
I went to a chiropracter first, it was cheaper and more local and I was pretty sure nothing was wrong with my heart. He checked me out, declared I had pinched a nerve between my ribs, gave me a pop and I was cured. I was back at work the next day (as the doc told me to take it easy for the rest of the current one.)

Just my experience, others may be different.
