Chiropractic care?

[rockky]

Thanks, Lilac! I appreciate all the suggestions.

LVN, You may be exactly right. I am grasping at straws at this point. I saw two different orthopaedists before I moved here last June. The first one sent me to a rheumatologist. The rheumatologist was not very helpful. As a matter of fact, he was mean. He then sent me on to a second orthopaedist. I'm just playing musical chairs, so if anyone has any good referrals I'm listening!!!

Well, you have to drive to Allentown, but they are exceptional. I ask you to check out the website. Driving to a-town in the winter shouldn't be too bad, you can just hop on the turnpike.

I can say this, that Chiropractors took huge migraine headaches away from my Mother in law who use to be in bed with them. She was one tough lady too.
They also stopped my oldest daughters headaches, that she would get totally very sick with. They also got her twisted back in place. It was in a U there for awhile.
This helps for years and years once all gets back in place.
They have stopped my husbands back pain, his headaches that were years ago also.
Neither my daughter nor hubby, get headaches now.
My neck was so bad once, I could barely handle it. The Chiropractor stopped that too.
But, there are good and bad. My sister seems to always get the bad ones.
Some also spend more time, some are way too quick.
It does work if something is out. However they need to be warned, if they don't Xray right away, if you have a degenerative disk. Then they are careful in that area.
Right now the one hubby uses is in the Bartonsville area, and so I am betting you need one closer to you. At first you have to go a few times a week. Our insurance covers most of it. Some insurances only cover so many visits.
The office is called Back2Life. on 611 ........Baker is the guy there. Great place, hubby swears by them........for his back. His headaches never came back again.

Welcome to OAA Orthopaedic Specialists

A major thanks to you again, LVN!! I'm taking in all of this info, and I'll make some choices after next week.

Summering, your posts are always so helpful and to the point. Thank you!! I looked up Back2Life to find the location. It doesn't seem too bad....between Target/BJs and the Mall. We were down that way yesterday to look for a lamp in town. The traffic was a real stinker for a bit, and it was only around 2 pm.

Thanks again for your help.

Note for you Rockky..........he will take you on the spur of the moment.
You can call, and they will say come on up most of the time.
Hubby, has never ever gotten a bill. They use his insurance, and cover it.

I see one all the time. He gives me the option of him pulling or tugging. Or the PRO ADJUSTER ProAdjuster Lifestyle - Information Portal
I have been to one for 15yrs. I will go to him before a Dr. I don't take meds. and I haven't had any surgery. The Drs wanted me to. But I said no. Then went to one. I am soooooooooo fine. I am not the only one too. I tell people see them first. I know the one that does Bon Jovi out of W.V. He flyes to Bon Jovi when he is wanted. He also travels with Bon Jovi when he is on tour. What a life.!
