Slanty McGarglefist	Posted - 2008.08.07 19:43:00 - [1] Edited by: Slanty McGarglefist on 07/08/2008 19:45:26 It's always been some weird fantasy of mine to go to a chiropractor and have a professional crack my back or whatever for once. I always enjoyed cracking my back, neck, knuckles, toes and knees so why not give this a shot? Has anyone gone to one before or are their methods the same if I continue to do it myself? __________________________________________________ Originally by: CCP Wrangler No Doh!
Slade Trillgon Siorai Iontach	Posted - 2008.08.07 19:45:00 - [2] I worked for one for 5 months. I let him crack my neck and it has not been the same since, and not in a good way. Slade DesuSigs

Akita T Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2008.08.07 19:47:00 - [4] Edited by: Akita T on 07/08/2008 19:50:11 Yup, the risk for damage is almost the same wether a "professional" does it or you do it yourself. But if you're a placebo-loving masochist, by all means, go ahead, visit a chiropractor Well, they are good in case of sprains or other wear-or-tear related ailments, but that's the only things they're good for. Don't hope for anything medically significant unless your shoulder is out of its socket or you're twisted like a pretzel from a fall on the stairs or somesuch, but you somehow didnt' manage to break any bones yet _ THE APPRENTICE \|\| mineral balance \|\| nanofix

I go to the chiropractor, $38 and he finds the problem in 20 mins and now I'm rehabbing it and feeling better already You're not afraid of the dark, are you?
Akita T Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2008.08.07 19:51:00 - [6] Edited by: Akita T on 07/08/2008 19:53:43 heh, see edit P.S. I only have a problem with those chiropractors that somehow promote "prophilactic" treatments, or any treatments whatsoever for stuff NOT directly (purely mechanically) related to bone/ligament/muscle positions or such. If you see one that goes "I'll help you lose weight" or "your liver is squeezed and that's why you're tired", GTFO. _ THE APPRENTICE \|\| mineral balance \|\| nanofix

Mazzarins Demise Profit Development and Research Association	Posted - 2008.08.07 19:54:00 - [10] Originally by: Evasra ...and ask for the happy ending. I question how often that actually happens. And I thought it only usually happened after massages?
Lardarz B'stard Amarr Dark Knights of Deneb Against ALL Authorities	Posted - 2008.08.07 19:57:00 - [11] I used to go out with one and she was really dirty. So, in short, yes they are.
Slade Trillgon Siorai Iontach	Posted - 2008.08.07 20:06:00 - [12] Edited by: Slade Trillgon on 07/08/2008 20:08:45 Originally by: Surfin's PlunderBunny Chiropractors are awesome, Slade apparently worked for a quack Well not to far off. Philosophically the guy was good, he was not one to adjust everyone for everything. He heavily believed in rehabilitation, hence my employment. That being said just keep in mind that unless you are 100% comfortable with the idea of someone cracking your neck or back with the possibility of causing a disk to rupture, by all means go ahead, it can help some people. Chiropractors should be used with caution and research. As for your knee, do you mind if I ask what he diagnosed you with that did not show up on an MRI? EDIT: Originally by: Akita T unless your shoulder is out of its socket You do not want a chiropractor relocating your shoulder. Slade DesuSigs
Eternal Error Exitus Acta Probant	Posted - 2008.08.07 20:07:00 - [13] I wouldn't trust anyone that touts a glorified massage as serious treatment for problems.
Surfin's PlunderBunny Minmatar Metafarmers	Posted - 2008.08.07 20:08:00 - [14] What's wrong with prophilactic treatment? It sounds fun Originally by: Garmon very good warrioring here imo godo warrior. very honor, so warrior. You're not afraid of the dark, are you?
Isiskhan Gnostic Misanthropy	Posted - 2008.08.07 20:12:00 - [15] My father swears by them. He keeps extolling their virtues to anyone who cares to listen, and the miracles they performed on a couple of physical mishaps he's had. I think one of them was actually blind, he worked his magic guiding himself solely by touch. I should be going to one myself, after a silly accident I had a year ago where I hurt my shoulder, but I haven't for no other good reason that I'm a procrastinating bastard and the one I was referred to is on the other side of the city. So I just keep saying "Ma±ana". In the meantime, I've figured that as long as I do exercises every day (I bought a set of weights, I'm too asocial for gyms), my shoulder doesn't hurt. But if I don't exercise, then it starts to act up and I'll be in pain. So that acts as motivator.
Tarminic 24th Imperial Crusade	Posted - 2008.08.07 20:17:00 - [16] My wife went to one once because she was having major back pain problems, and he fixed them all in one visit. I was highly impressed. Then she did this special kind of back cracking technique she picked up from the guy and I have to say, for a week my back felt better than it had ever felt. Upon reading this post, this sounds hilarious like the "treatment" the chiropractor gave my wife was significantly different than advertized. ---------------- Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.83 (Updated 7/3)

Kalahari Wayrest Re-Awakened Technologies Inc	Posted - 2008.08.07 23:16:00 - [20] Edited by: Kalahari Wayrest on 07/08/2008 23:16:53 Chiropractors are practioners of voodoo and dark magicks. I went a lot as a kid, as my mum often had a bad back - he taught me some things (albeit a bit irresponsibly) which I can't remember years later but basically, you touch a part of the body in a certain way and they can't move it at all until you reverse it...I think it was something to do with hands or fingers. Wish I could remember, I wanna go paralyze some ppls... Anyway, she always swore by them which is why she paid the extortionate fees __________________________ Indulge Me Consider Yourself Indulged - Immy ♥ Wow immy scored - Xorus
