I’ve found chiropractors to be incredibly helpful. Some, obviously, better than others.

It’s usually pretty fast relief, it just isn’t long term lasting.

However, I’ve found more long term relief making adjustments by addressing dysfunctions and my biomechanics.

Amen! Like decent health care, after we've Earned it. 🤨 Meanwhile, some people I know, get Everything paid for, but, refuse to work, feel they're entitled. To what?
Strong, healthy, young and LAZY. Their hard working parents say the same thing, "If they were Truly disabled, it would be different, but they're Not. They knew how to con the system."
This whole system is a.. backwards, IMO.

Sorry for the rant. Is the moon getting full? 🙄😄

I was thinking a chiropractor too. I think they get a bad rap.

I have busted discs all and up down my spine, but I also think at least some of my hip pain is due to them being so out of whack, and also wondering if it'll help my shoulder problems.

For years I've laid/leaned more on my left side due to other health problems I have and it's all just discombobulated

Also thinking getting massage done ppl who know about fibro and mayofascia pain etc. But my insurance doesn't cover it.

I wish we all had answers besides basically just a word for our pain and then basically shrugs by doctors.

Big hugs!

We are a pretty great group so feel free to vent or whatever.

Yes, I have been treated by chiropractors. It did help, but, it takes time. It's not a magic, one or two visit cure. Though, I had a terribly bad headache once, the chiro did his manipulations, and within 5 min my bad headache improved.👍Unfortunately, insurance quit helping pay for treatments, so I couldn't keep up with the visits, or I'd still be going regularly.

The team I used believed in nutrition and other healthy regimens, including exercise to help with fibro and arthritis.

There are quacks in every field of health therapy and medicine.

I see a chiropractor every week. He is very good at working out my trigger points and is very helpful for me.
