As for your back, bad ones are a pain.
I can't agree with Paul though, chiros aren't the be all and end all to their cracked up to be. It's a masking technique, not a cure.
Try and address the problem from the cause first and make an informed decision as best you can.

That seems to be a comment that a lot of people have with Chiro's usually made by people who have not been to a corrective Chiro. When you see the xrays of before and compare them to 3 months of treatment you soon change your tune. Not all Chiro's are masking the problem. Corrective Chiros actually address the problem and fix it. It takes a long time to develop the problem and if done correctly only a year to fix. By that time your back is back to when you were 20 and with more strength. Non corrective chiro's are the masking variety. Just pain management. I am sure if you had seen my spine early this year and then looked at it now, you would see the merits. However, Chiropractic has only been around for 30 or so years, I guess modern medicine took several hundred years to be considered legitimate.
