Well, some of the older chiros didn't believe in germ theory, and that all disease (ALLLL DISEASE) was caused by misalignment of the spine.

Chiropractors are fine if you go to them for what they're good at, which is relieving pressure and adjusting the spine. They will try to get you on the once-a-week carousel, so watch out for that. Most insurance companies have picked up on that though, and have limited their coverage of chiro treatments.

for what its worth.
I'll tellya I used to get neck cramps from talking on the phone. Especially when talking to my females cohorts. A few weeks back I bought one of those headset thingies and that has made a world of difference.

If you're spending a fair amount of time on the work phone and it doesn't have one of those attachments, you should look into getting a headset or one of those add-on things. just a thought.

Yeah, I was warned about that. If my doc tried that, I'd be like, "Hello, I don't need my spine screwed w/ every other day, bud, thanks anyway."

Briar, that might be an issue for me when I start day shift. Right now though, no one calls the office at night. Thanks for the tip.

I used to have the pleasure of deposing a chiropractor or two just about every month when I worked for an insurance defense mill. One of the few enjoyable aspects of that gig was calling them "Mister" instead of "Doctor." They hate that. Some of them get really steamed up.
