Chiropractor questions
I went to a chiropractor yesterday for back pain, and when we started talking I told him I had more health issues like some autoimmune problems and a thyroid disorder, he claimed he could cure those things because they are all connected and controlled by nerves and if you free the spine the diseases go away.

He proposed a lot of treatments as many as 10 in 3 weeks. And then once every week.

So my quack alarm went off in my head. I had the feeling this guy just wants to make money.

But I want to secretly ask my fellow GLPers if they have experienced any lasting non-placebo cures of ailments other than back or joint pain, after consulting a chiropractor?

I went to a spine specialist and he told me that if they make claims about curing autism, dump him. Other than that it's like getting a massage, nice and relaxing experience. My chiro helped with my headaches, that he cured. I don't get them anymore and I don't visit either.
When you find a piece of shit along side the road and you poke it with a stick, what do you expect to find inside of it, gold?
No, it's just going to stink more.

A chiropractor got rid of my Myoclonus twitches/jerks from getting adjusted. It wasn't all the atlas therapy but taking many supplements and vitamins also that healed my nervous system.

Don't bother! They just want your money! I've seen 3 of them and I left the treatments worse than when I went in. Minor stretching and back exercise helped me overcome my ailments.
It's witch craft!

Re: Chiropractor questions
Thanks, I already thought why do I need so many consults, if the spine's cracked And the bones are loose why do I need to come back so many times in a short period.

Re: Chiropractor questions
Your chiro is right, an imbalance in your body creates other ailments than only back/neck pain. If your body is properly aligned than than your nervous system which controls other biological processes are also in balance, so will your mind too be in balance. Your mind is your whole body, an not only your brain!

Chiro alone won't help align your body, because it focuses primarily on your spine/vertebra, less on your muscles.
It's the muscles which is actually causing an imbalance in your body, thus you should also work on your muscles, for example with rolfing therapy

You are being permanently being realigned. It's done in small increments. Tweaking here and there till every thing is lined up. Then exercises to keep you lined up.

A good Chiropractor is like a Orchestra Conductor of the spine.

Or you could just try this...

This is OP
I went to the chiropractor and now for the first time in years I can breathe through my right nostril, I had a little blood coming out this morning but Im amazed, I forgot what fresh air smells like lol.

I was so used to breathing through one nostril that it did not bother me until it relieved lol.

OK just wanted to update. :)
