I’m 31…a year ago I was doing Ironman triathlons. I now have 3 bulging discs and have been unable to sit for 8 months. I have been to many chiro’s in the area…I think they are well intentioned, but 70% of them are quacks.
One I visited in particular was convinced that my back could be fixed by flicking my thumb quickly in front of my eye to trigger a neurological response…that doesn’t exactly fix a bulging disc or annular tear.
Others I have been to that are half chiro, half physical therapist really know their stuff and are exceptionally helpful.
Recommendations from your friends don’t seem to count for much in this space…the folks most likely to recommend a chiro are the same ones least likely to know the wheat from the chaff.
