something saved my life and my family's and i have to tell you about it.

Welcome to 4WT! I've actually been considering going to a chiropractor soon.. I've been having insane back pain for the past week, but I'm going to go to a doctor first on Friday to make sure it's not arthritis coming back. I had arthritis in my left hip when I was 6 years old, and was told it would most likely be back before I was 18 in my other hip. I thought I got past it, now being 22, but now I'm not so sure.
I didn't know about the other benefits though. I too have kidney problems. When I was 16 it was discovered that my kidneys weren't working properly and after 5 years of constant urine tests, blood tests, and ultrasounds, they just decided one kidney is damaged and there's nothing they can do about it. I had a specialist tell me it was most likely caused by constant throat infections.
Thanks so much for the information!

I think I saw a similar post on YT. I've only been to a Chiropractor once in my life when I was a teenager (I'm 52 now). It worth looking into. Thanks for all the information!

I love going to the chiropractor. I hurt my back really badly when I was in 7th grade. I couldn't even get off the couch! My mom carried me to the doctor and all they did was prescribe me some Vioxx. I didn't want to just "mask" the pain so my mom did some research and decided to take me to the chiro. The adjustments completely got rid of my back pain and it hasn't come back since, at that was 9 or 10 years ago!!!!!! My hubby and I are moving around a lot these days, but when we settle down in a town, I will find a chiropractor and continue my adjustments. I am not so much a holistic medicine fanatic, considering my hubby is a medical doctor, but I do believe in a combination of both.

im so glad that some of you are getting into chiropractic its great and i really cant tell you all the wonderful things that i see everyday. please always feel free to ask any questions.

My husband has different problems with his back and at different times has been in very bad shape from it. He credits chiro with keeping him upright and mobile.

Our son had a sinus infection that just wouldn't go away. We finally took him to our chiro and he used a whole box of tissues over the next 24 hrs just keeping up with the drainage when it finally broke loose.

I've got arthritis in my spine and knees, so have gone for treatments for that as well as other things.

A friend had recurring strep that she finally got rid of through chiro treatments.

I would have to agree that it's helpful for a variety of issues!

That is very interesting about your son. I too have serious sinus problems that we cant get rid of. I am wondering how going to a chiropractor fixed his sinuses. I would love that if it worked for me.

I don't know how I missed this thread before. I've been going to chiropractors for many, many years. They have helped me quite a bit, but I'm wondering, since I've had different experiences with different chiropractors, how do you know which ones are good and which ones are not so good? How do you evaluate them. The one I'm going to now seems to be helping quite a bit. My problem is mostly in my neck. Stiffness, pain, headaches, numbness in my hands.
