I've always heard once you start using a bone cracker it's hard to stop. The cartilage goes bad from being "popped" all the time and it becomes a necessary process from then on. |
The Chiropractor was the only one who could help me! Around 8-10 years ago, I suffered severe headaches where I couldn't even sit or stand, the only thing I could do to tolerate the pain was to lay down. After numerous trips to the doctor, to the ER, having x-rays, CT Scans, shots of Demerol, prescriptions for pain pills, and muscle relaxants (ie-Lortab, Hydrocodone, etc.) doctors kept telling me they could find nothing wrong.
One day I got an appointment with Dr. Pick, he x-rayed me, then popped my neck and instantly my headache was gone. He told me that my neck had gotten out of place and was applying pressure to a nerve that was causing the pain. He also said that since it was so bad(out of alignment) and that the muscles had gotten used to holding the neck in that (out-of) position that the pain would return and I needed to come back until the muscles got retrained to hold the neck in the proper alignment. I went back every day for a week, then dropped to 3 times per week for a couple of weeks, then once a week for about a month, then once a month for quite awhile. Now I only go a few times per year when
I feel I need an alignment. He worked wonders, after all the medical doctors were clueless.
Don't believe everything you hear about Chiropractors. Find a good one and he or she can work wonders.
