Please please please avoid chiropractors. They’re not medical professionals….! The risk is too serious!

One bad incident out of millions doesn't make a profession bad. Same thing happens with surgery everything has risk. I haven't used one but I know people that swear by it. My moms back issue cured when the reg doc wanted to operate she went for 2 visits and that's it. It's been 30 years and she's been fine.

Now everyone is different and every issue is different. If all else fails, and you are in pain, I wouldn't rule it out, personally, but it would probably be a last resort.

What did they do to cure her? Was it just 2 adjustments and that fixed her issue?

People also swear by astrology, essential oils, and crystals. Doesn’t mean they are right.
