    I went for Auto Innovations in Milpitas because Custom Alignment quoted me $200 versus $150.

    Having worked in many bees-nest esque control panels, a neatly done/organized panel sure does make me happy.

    I heard it's something a chiropractor can do to help with headaches or different pains in the body? I dunno, never had one

    totally worth it

    Only have been once and I didn't want to but because insurance was paying for it because I was hit while in a company work van. Company owner was like please just go, it's covered.
    Chiro was surprised I'd never been to one. Chiro did the initial inspection or whatever and popped a couple of those deals like at lower back/hip. I do this anyway, or have someone do it when I get that pinched nerve feeling, haven't for a while though few years, and he was like well everything actually looks pretty good. I said I guess you see now why I've never been to one. Just haven't felt a need, I guess. That was like a year and a half ago. But I'm healthy and crap for the most part

    TBH chiropractors kind of freak me out....feel like one small misstep and *crack* you're a vegetable, or in worse pain than before

    With the cruisers I always went to the more expensive pros as well. Was like 125 I think but only ones that I feel did it properly and understood what they were doing with the adjustments.

    Yeah, I totally get what you mean and it's definitely not for everyone.

    I usually try and do the same with popping my own back but I did something with my neck this week and couldn't seem to get it right on my own.

    Also I know my hips get out of alignment but I forgot how bad it was. One leg was 1.5" shorter because of how far out my hip was, which probably doesn't do any favors for my knees either.

    yeah it's pricey but after multiple Firestone headaches it's worth it to pay for an expensive one a couple times a year

    I got my lifetime package through them a few years ago for $180 but they were running a special on it. Hardly use it anymore unless I just need a toe and go

    Oh is this work you're doing for someone on the side? That's the association with the fountain? Cool man. Keep it up and above all if you always do it right and communicate with your customer, you'll find more work than you could ever want
