The Chiropractor Starter Pack

I was sort of skeptical of chiropractors, but ended up seeing a highly regarded one. I feel like he does indeed understand quite a bit about the spine and generally knows what he’s doing in that regard, however... he also seemed involved in some quackery unfortunately as well and it just sort of turned me off.

Example: he asked if I had anxiety, I told him I did, so he said he could treat that. After adjusting my back every session, it would get silent, and he’d put his hands on my head... just resting them there. He asked me if I felt my anxiety improving and when I said no, he seemed shocked. I asked what exactly it was he was doing and he said “energy healing”. Well geez, no wonder it wasn’t working lol.

Few other stories about some whacky stuff at this practice, but I’ll leave it at that.

Again, this was a very highly recommended chiropractor and I know a lot of people who see him. Super nice guy, people swear they feel better after seeing him, but gah. I can kind of see why some ppl don’t totally trust the practice. But for the people who genuinely feel better afterward, good for them, I’m glad they get relief and maybe I did just happen to go to a more quaky one.
