Still jerk off with the other hand, though. It's a slight exaggeration, but that guy practially saved my life. All the money I spend on doctors and a $35 chiropractor visit, that I thought was bullshit, literally cured whatever the fuck was wrong with my wrist. So there's an adjustment, and the pain went away for the first time in more than a year. I thought this sounded stupid but the chiro said "well, maybe you have a pinched nerve in your spine that leads to the wrist." Okay, yeah, fine, whatever.

After a year of this, in desperation I went to a chiropractor at the urging of a friend. (Hell, I had to start jerking off with my other hand.) I had x-rays, I had physical therapy, I had drugs, and nothing worked. I was (at times) suicidal, it hurt so much and I couldn't do anything. I had a problem in my arm and wrist after an accident, I couldn't use a mouse, I couldn't turn a key in a fucking door, my right hand was useless and suffering terrible pain. Shit with empty bottles that "represent" allergens or something.

I've been to nutty chiropractors, and I've left immediately. I'll look through to answer any questions people may have asked. This got a bigger, more passionate response than I thought it would. I offered to stay at least through the weekend to help clean up some stuff for the end of the week but he declined and said he would have the part time assistant do it now which was fine by me. Explained it to the main chiropractor, who is also the owner, who told me that if I was unhappy working there and wasn't 100% on board with his beliefs in his office than it is a good thing I am quitting. Keep the discussion going! I'll be back on when I get home in the afternoon.Cheers!Įdit2: So I did quit and did give my reasons why. Which by the way, is going to happen at about 10:30AM PST. I do not share these beliefs, which is why I am quitting. This is doesn't represent all chiropractors, but it is a very strong, cult like force out there. The others in the office, and unfortunately, the others in the community I have dealt with first hand and in seminars (I've met about 250 chiropractors) strongly, STRONGLY believe they can cure ailments (cancer, asthma, infertility, MS, allergies, epilepsy, etc) by doing adjustments on the spine and neck. Thanks!Įdit: I personally do not feel every chiropractor is "bunk" (hence the 90%) and we have two very great chiropractors in our seven chiropractor office who I feel do great, honest and rehabilitative work with patients. There's more to this story obviously, but I'll take any questions to maybe clarify. Some of the comments I've heard made from some chiropractors (not just my own office, there's a ton of seminars for these people I've been forced to go to) have completely disillusioned me. While I feel people who have perhaps been injured on the job or in a car accident do benefit from some adjustments or "manipulations of the spine", our clinic has been trending more towards family care, and watching a 6 month old get "adjusted" makes me sick. I am the only non-chiropractor/LMP in the office. I do insurance verification, billing, payment plans and SOAP notes. I work as an office manager and CA for a very busy downtown chiropractic and massage center.
