i love my chiropractor. SHe does a small amount of massage herself along with the adjustments and has you lay on a heating pad for about 10 minutes before she sees you. She is pretty young, but also a mom and been thrugh some pain herself, so she definitely seems to understand me when i talk to her. She also knew a what a 1st rib adjustment was, and was the first chiro i met that did and would do one for me.

she is a very important part of my treatment but i do not depend on her alone- she is part of my chiro, pt, massage, and feldenkrais mish mash that seems to be doing it for me, after having surgeries on both sides.

mine works in a spa- so the whole atmosphere is a bit pampering....you know?

i just would not neccessarily buy the 'you have to come three days a week part" i find for me once a week is plenty-maybe for a few weeks in the beginning it was helpful, but I did it for way too many months.

good luck to you
