Q - Anybody here ever see a Chiropracter while on a cycle?

[mrflexdiesel]

Man, I've been needing to see a good chiropracter for a long time now. Just havn't got down to doing it. It's about due time though! 10+ years of screwing my back and neck up. My lower back's so messed up now that I can't even deadlift or squat anymore because of the stress on it. Even heavy barbell curls are difficult to do. I'm just hoping I havn't slipped a disc or something?

Some chiropractors are total bullshit. I have seen a few, one of them was charging my insurance 200 bucks an appointment. I have been seeing the same one for the last 7 years now. Its called the ortman clinic. They have there own method called the Ortman method. Its worked wonders for me. Basically they work with the muscles rather than crack your bones. Figure all cracking will do is iritate the muscles and make them pull the everything right back out of place. Otherwise the second best thing I would recomend is go to a chiropractor that First doest want to see you like every other day, and also one that does massage too.Its sooo much better when the muscles are relaxed before the adjustment.

Term are you serious? You got canned for surfing elite? Why didnt you use the stealth mode or whatever the heck its called? Thats shitty.

I WAS surfing it through what was then "Safeweb.com" (now defunct)...

But they blew some smoke up my ass about it being something else, but I knew better
I thoght about giving them some shitty discrimination lawsuit over it, but decided it wasnt in my best interest (and the job market for me was REAL good then anyway...)

Why dont you just wait until treatments are complete and you feel back to,or near 100% then start your cycle?That makes most sense to me,you waited this long.......

I have seen 6 different chiros, and some are definitely better than others. The chiro I see now is by far the best. No cracking, no forceful adjustments. He adjusts my atlas and various other points and when I leave I am limp as a noodle instead of tight, sore, and stooped over like an old man. When your spine is out of alignment it's usually because the muscles are pulling it out of whack. Most people are not born with crooked spines- When you "crack" your back, neck, whatever, it will temporarily straighten you out, but that is treating the symptom, not the cause. My chiro works with the nervous system to retrain the muscles from drawing back up at innapropriate times. Chiro is not a quick fix, I've been going for years, always will. I continue to improve, and x-rays that we take every year show my spine continuing to improve.
