A chiro does not want to hurt you, but may be able to help you after he/she determines what is going on.

I've had neck problems for years. An MD told me not to go to a chiropractor. They would only make me worse, but they are the only ones who are actually able to help me. I'll never be cured, but the chiropractor has helped make life much better. I had to try a few before finding one who consistently helps me.

Wish you the very best, and a pain free future!!

I think I'm going to consider a chiropractor before the same thing happens again. I'm going to have to go through my benefits and stuff to see if it's covered by my work!
