It irks me that chiros get a bad rap.
I love them so much, and I've never had a bad experience. I have dislocated my hip many times, had whiplash and rotator cuff issues, and strained thoracic muscles. Each time the chiro was able to completely fix the pain- no meds necessary. Yesterday might have been the most amazing recovery yet, though.
I'd been in serious pain all week. I couldn't walk without limping and hobbling around, and I thought this was just going to be my lot for the remainder of the pregnancy. I didn't think the chiro would be able to adjust things quite enough, since I thought back pain was just a very normal part of pregnancy. So I expected to still be a tad uncomfortable though hopefully not in serious pain like I was.
Well, she adjusted my SI joints, stretched the round ligaments, and adjusted some spots in my upper back and neck. I hopped up off the table (carefully) and walked pain-free out of the office! There is usually some residual soreness as the muscles adjust to the realigned spine/joints but I am completely, 100% pain-free. No joke. I feel like I'm not even 8 months pregnant anymore- I'm so comfortable. I'm amazed.
