I know so many people to go to a chiropractor on a weekly basis and either pay out of pocket or have benefits cover it BUT I seen articles or posts pop up that refer to it as junk junk medicine and on the same level as a holistic practitioner???

I have been going to one chiropractor for 20 years, great guy. I asked him pointedly about adjustments and that most ppl don’t go to chiropractors so what does he do that the body just does not take care of on its own. His response was that when your spine is out of adjustment. it will eventually realign on its own. The difference is in the amount of pain you can avoid if the problem is taken care of sooner. From my experience, if I lift something stupidly and my lower back is spasming and so painful I can’t function normally, an adjustment takes care of the problem immediately rather than suffering through weeks of hobbling along.
