    Anyone have any good/bad stories?
    I've gone to a chiropractor before for a work related injury a few years ago so I didn't have to pay, now I'm having some back and neck pain so I'm thinking about going again, but it's pretty expensive. The sales pitch I got the other day when I went back was pretty disturbing to say the least. I'm going to check out another chiropractor's philosohy, in the meantime what do you think? Are these guys legit?

    I think this got hashed out a while back as far as the true art of Chiropractic. I got to mixed philosophy practitioners myself. 30 bucks every 8 weeks to keep on rib in place and relieve some pressure from my neck versus a surgery with a 5 to 6 month recovery time is worth it in my life right now.

    As Brunes said.
    It was discussed before with many opinions.
    My chiro is top notch. No sales pitch.
    Referred me to an orthopaedic who changed my life. ie. Replaced my knee.
    Referred me to PT who put me through my paces with rehab.
    Finally my body/leg has straighten out & is in alignment and strong.
    No need to go any more & everybody is ok with that.

    So my story is good though I have had other appts with other chiropractors that were not like this at all, more your experience.

    Just like everything some are better than others...I have had dentist's tell me all sorts of things, adult braces seriously. :facepalm:
    My dentist now is way cool no sales pitch & honest to a T!
