Question:
and have recently started going to a chiropractor. The curve in my neck is completely reversed. I am only 25 years old and suffer no pain from this. I had x-rays done about 6 months ago because I was having lower back pain. From a Chiropractor's perspective...what would be the best treatment? My chiropractor is talking about doing drop therapy for it (Right now we're working on my severe pain in my lower back which he says is from compression and mostly muscular, so he's stretching me on a traction table, i've only had 2 appointments). Can you explain this.. and also, should I invest in buying a "Posture Pump" that's on the market. THanks...
Answers:
For lower back pain I would suggest get a MRI done and see if there is disc slippage or degeneration. These problems are not treatable by a chiropractor.
Chiropractors are hit and miss I have known people who swear by them, I have know people who got permanently hurt by them and stood in pain for rest of their lives. Find good references before hiring one.
Good luck!
