  Worked for my ex-wife. 6 treatments and he sent her home, fixed for good. The bad stories may outweigh the good, but let’s not pretend all practitioners are dumbasses.

  For people who point to certifications and education, I’ll remind them that plenty of doctors and nurses smoke and are anti-vax. It ain’t a perfect world.

    They are not practitioners. They hold no medical degree and you should not trust them with any medical care. Treat them for what they are, glorified back crackers who peddle pseudoscience and may kill you by accident.

    The best way to treat this is to ensure you have good posture and exercise regularly
