They're just like any other Doctor... you just have to find a good one. The hubby has one for his back from where he broke it in the 80's. She is great. I was with him one time when I was in college and mentioned that my hip was messed up from carrying such a heavy book load. She popped me on the table and poked abit and said hold on.

When she popped me, I was ready to cry or yell or something (it sounded like she broke bones lol) but then it dawned on me that for all the noise I had heard in my own ears, it really didn't hurt. I was stiff for a couple of hours but after that wore off it was like a whole new hip.

She doesn't want people in there all the time like some. She goes with the plan that most people respond to treatment and then not have to come back unless they re-injure themselves. Or if they do NOT respond then there is no sense coming more than say 10 times. Give it a try and quit if its no go. I know he goes now and again but only when he has pulled something loose. And he always comes out with a bounce in his step. ;-)

Pimp, try the electro therapy! Whoo Hoo! (IF the doc will think its any good for whatever is wrong with you) Great feeling and then you get the vibrator bed right after.
