Jim..I see a Chiropractor once a month..Alot of people think Chiropractory care is a bunch of hocus pocus, but it is not in my experience..Pd causes us to have bad posture, and we tend to have one side of the body that works better than the other, and this causes our spine to be out of whack most of the time..After a good Dr does adjustments, and I do mean a good Dr, I feel like my body is straight as an arrow..I stand straighter, and my gait is better..I can feel the difference when I walk..A good Chiropractor can give us exercises to do that strengthen the muscles that hold the spine in place..Its all mechanics..The way I see it is, when you've got pd, you need to get the best possible performance out of what is left, and if an adjustment can give me another 10%,15%, or 20%, then it is to my benefit

It is good to remember that our spine wasnt engineered for us to stand up straight, but engineered to walk on all fours like an animal
