Ok, just have a question... I've gone to
a chiropractor about 2 years now.
Noticed one day my neck was real stiff and
kinda achy so I started. I was kinda
working out more than I normally have so
maybe that had something to do with it.
Anyway, i'd go in for an adjustment every
2-3 months. A few months ago I moved to
colorado and have been going about every
2-3 weeks 'cuz my back gets achy and
"kinked up" (my name for it). And I
don't understand why it's more now than
before. The only thing that's different
is I haven't run or worked out in the past
3-4 months. I haven't had any weird back
injuries... I'm healthy. So my question
is how can I "wean" myself from the
chiropractor (nothing wrong with him..
Love him! He's great!) so I can save
money and not be dependent on him. I
don't like that!! I'm a healthy person
and don't understand the whole "achy back"
deal! Is there something I can do??
Help! :(
thanks so much!!

Hi there,
for starters, have you been to a
physician to have your back x-rayed? Have
you been given any info. From an actual
doctor?
I suspect there is a reason your back is
feeling "kinked up" and that could be why
your pain is relieved for only a short
period of time. If you have a problem
with your spine, all that adjusting can
make it worse.
I am not a doctor but that is what I
would tell you to do............
