I ""used"" to wholeheartedly believe in chiropractic, but, after a 2 year chiropractic patient with a neck and back that's only gotten worse over the years with this young unexperienced doctor, I'm living proof that chiropractic is NOT the ""be-all, end-all"" remedy proposed by those vitamin-pushing quacks who insist you come for adjustments twice a week for three months, and thereafter for ""maintenance treatments"" for the rest of your natural life.\r
\r
This is exactly what my last (and final) chiropractor was guilty of (Dr.Hansen) In just one month I dropped nearly $500 for my twice-a-week adjustments plus stimulus treatments (which totaled $70 per visit), plus a full-body X-ray (which were part of the initial visit), which revealed the sad shape my skeleton was in - As if I didn't know.... \r
\r
The reason I became a patient of this particular chiropractor was partly because I was brainwashed by his contemporary ideas and seemingly thorough knowledge presented in a modern office setting that consisted of the latest fancy gadgets and ""bells and whistles."" Bottom line: I found out the hard way that he didn't know what she was doing when I ended up flat on my back in bed with excruciating neck and back aches resulting in extreme dizziness and sleeplessness after an ""activator"" adjustment where she had set the instrument too high for my fused, delicate, overly-adjusted neck.\r
\r
Needless to say, I have legitimate reasons for neck and back pain - and chiropractic seemed to be the remedy. It would have been, had most of the chiropractors simply ""adjusted"" me and then left me alone once my problem was resolved. But no, I was SEVERLY manipulated into coming at least twice a week for three months because I needed to ""retrain"" my bones (yes, ""retrain"")....In other words, my condition was abused by A MONEY-HUNGRY chiropractor who saw dollar signs the moment they realized the extent of my problems.\r
\r
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE\r
