I've seen several different chiros. Some didn't help at all and others helped a lot. The helpful ones:

-- spend 30 mins with me instead 15

-- do soft tissue work preceding adjustments (A.R.T., myofascial release, etc.)

-- are familiar with TOS and first ribs

You can always try out a new one and switch at any time once you find what you need. After I moved last year, I necessarily tried a new one, but he was of the "15 min appointment; no soft tissue work" variety which did not do it for me. I tried a 2nd one and he's been great.

I have to repeat treatment every 7 - 10 days or my TOS gets bad again, but I'm thankful for the relief. I also had to repeat with PTs. I'm a regresser.

And with MDs, I don't walk out of the office feeling better. MDs give talk, meds or surgery.

On more than one occasion, I have stopped PT and/or chiro and then regressed. I have come to accept that I need a PT with manual therapy or a chiro with soft tissue. Or I need the surgery, which I have not had.

Chiros are like all professions--the folks vary immensely in their skill level and experience. You'll want to look around.
