Reply #33: My dad went to chiropractors for over 60 years and swore by them

He had arthritis in his neck because of a football injury as a teenager.

Some were better than others, though, he said.

He tried acupuncture, too, but said the effects didn't last as long as the chiropractic manipulation.

I got a treatment once when I took my dad. Didn't do that much for me, but I thought it was interesting that the doc was able to tell I have a habit of lying on the sofa with my head up on the arm.

I think if it works, it's better for someone than taking those drugs with all the horrible side effects. I wonder if the pharmaceutical industry pays for propaganda against chiropractors for that reason.
