Back Problems From Sleeping

Most people I know who have had upper back/shoulder/neck issues were able to get positive results from a chiropractor. Consider yourself lucky. I've had lower back spasms/tightness since I was in my early 20's and no one has been able to do ****

Some chiropractors make use of objective material therapeutic techniques that can help some. Others peddle New Age nonsense, and are no different from common thieves.
 
Its just like any other profession. Some people are good at their jobs, some arent. Some chiropractors are really good, some are terrible and will *** up your back.

If you can find a legit chiropractor then it'd be worth a shot if it's been bothering you that long. They're a mixed bag though so it's not as easy as just opening the phone book. If you're wanting to save time, money and hassle I'd hold off/cut back on the weight lifting routine for a bit first.

If you're looking for some kind of more hands-on approach and people who see those issues more frequently, I'd honestly see a PM&R doctor (physical medicine and rehabilitation). I don't know where you live but I'm pretty certain it's Utah. If that's the case, here's a start to finding one https://intermountainhealthcare.org...liation=&clinicAffiliation=&selectHealthPlan=

I'd probably look for one who's a DO as they'd be much more likely to utilize manipulative therapies as they are additionally trained in that. PM&R is a broad specialty, however, so it's hard to know who does what, so I'd ask when calling. If that's an avenue you're considering I can give more info or recommend someone who does a lot of manual therapy.
 
I don't believe in chiropractors. My wife went once and they fed her this bs line about a bunch of things wrong with her just to milk some more money. I would definitely do the massage thing though. They know so many tricks it's not even funny.

My wife goes every 3-4 months and no longer gets chronic migraines that she's had since 10. It's $25 a visit and she pretty much walks in whenever.

I have a friend who gets adjusted every 3-4 months and he says it really helps.

But it's not for every type of back pain or headaches either, and the lack of money probably creates some ill incentives. I've heard a few get the 25 session contract sign right here line.
 
Get one of these. Just keep away from females. Or don't...
