Is there a Chiropractor in Pittsburgh who has a good physical therapy center too?

I have "mouse shoulder" and other upper body pains. I went to an orthopedic suregon for neck pain, and he basically ignored addressing the rest of my symptoms by only ordering physical therapy for my neck even. I've never been to a Chiropractor, and I don't want someone manipulating my spine. But I've heard that many Chiropractors do physical therapy and treat other complaints, like shoulder pain.

Any recommendations? I live in the North, but I can easily get to the East End too.

The Chiropractor I went to was on Babcock and his name is Dr. Matijasic. I only went to him a couple of times but he fixed me. Well, it was either that or the yoga I was doing 3 days a week. Anyway, he was nice but I think he is a traditional chiropractor.

Or you could always try the one in Georgia.

Thanks for sharing. The physical therapist associated with the orthopedic surgeon treated the "whole person" and not just the neck. After four visits, I was fine.

I'm glad physical therapists don't have to listen 100% to doctors. They do their own evaluation and treat accordingly. Just need the doctor to refer for an evaluation. After that, it's smooth sailing.
