chiropractor

Are these doctors spine doctors that have looked at your spine images? There are certain issues that can be worsened by a chiro. At one point we really thought I had some major disc issues and it reached a point where my chiro would not do adjustments. He'd only do acupuncture, until we were sure that what I had going on was not something he could worsen.

I have seen a chiropractor over the past few months. He has been excellent. After my visit next week I will be on maintenance. I was having a lot of issues with charley horses and restless leg syndrome, as well as a stabbing pain in my neck. Since getting adjustments by him, these issues are mostly resolved. I really believe and trust in my chiropractor.

My doctor is being replaced he is fine with the FM diagnoses and I think something else is wrong. Her also had a bad habit of yelling at me... He is not wanting to see if any other meds may help.... It feels like he wants me on narcotics and just left there. I have found a new one and will be making an appointment to see him on Monday.... I need a doctor who understands that I have been going through this since my late teens and yes I agree I have FM, but I also know I have something wrong with my spine.... I wake up and cannot even get out of bed I have to throw myself to the floor and slowly get up... Then it hurts to walk to bathroom... These are normal FM things. But when I bend I cannot get up with out help of something to pull on and it feels like my back is breaking.. Most of the people on here have other things that were found before or after FM I just don't want this to continue if it's fixable

I have seen a chiro a few times. He is really good, takes ex-rays, locates the issues and presents a plan before he starts. I couldn't turn my neck before he adjusted me, now it feels much better and I have mobility again. After the first round of treatments, I have only had to go back once about a year later. I have taken other members of my family and he has made a great deal of positive outcomes with them.

I think you just need to find one that is reputable and make sure you feel comfortable with it.

I do get sore the day after an adjustment, but after a day or two, I feel so much better and the pain is lessened quite a bit. If your skeletal system is out of alignment, it will pull on your tendons and muscles to the point where they cannot relax.

Also, I was going to a massage therapist at the same time, I told her what was going on with my skeletal and what adjustments the chiro was making and she was able to help the healing process move along faster with her techniques.

The doctor that saw my xray said that she see more patients who get hurt by chiropractor... She didn't base it on my xray, but her own experience.... My doctor just doesn't believe I need anything more than to lose weight and take the narcotics... Honestly I feel like I'm losing my life... He put me on narcotics because he said they've already tried me on everything else. But then at my third appointment when my back and hip was starting to hurt he said he wouldn't raise my meds until I lost weight.... I never asked him to raise it.... I asked him to see what else was wrong.... Which he never did.
