Oddbean new post about login | logout Supposed to go see one of those fake-doctor chiropractor people in a little bit. Suspect it's going to be a waste of time but I'll give it a chance. Thoughts?
No thoughts but an update on how it goes I would be interested in.

My chiropractor is brilliant! Got rid of my sciatic pain and any back that comes on. Nothing like a good neck and back crack! I see mine every month and my body is better for it.
My chiro gave me these neat tools to use for pressure points https://image.nostr.build/5f6f401a39ee8c789d6ab5db1454d694f4ab94d59d85ed1b09724964c254485a.jpg
never been to one but some of those guys on youtube appear to perform near-miracles... ask him what his purpose in life is. if he says something about his job, ask him to meta that... if he cant answer directly and without squirming, find someone else.
we are now in a world where lawyers and judges dont know the law, educators dont know jack shit, and doctors dont know fucking medicine... prepare a pointed 3-question handout targeting things that only a conscientious person would be able to answer and give it to anyone who wants to have anything to do with you.
Depends. Not all Chiros are equal. Just like not all MDs are great. But I stand by Chiropractic care working wonders for most people and it's minimally to non invasive, unlike a MD who'll just mask the issue by pushing you to painkillers and/or upselling their surgeon buddies for a quick fix at a major cost. Look for a Chiro who does the Gonstead method. Hope it all goes well for you.
I have had back/hip issues since my early 20s. I went the chiro path and didnt find much true help. Physiotherapy/guided stretching has helped me maintain a better state over the last many years. Chiro can adjust you, but if your body is working against the adjustment the whole time, adjustments will be needed more frequently. YMMV. Giod luck with your issue, i hope it resolves!
