Feb 2019

i had a fall and an injury to my back. i went to a chiro.
back pain is the only thing they should even be allowed to look at. the ones that claim to cure anything make me crazy. a neighbor used to take her kid to a chiro for asthma!!

i got about 2 months of "adjustments" and some massage.
i ended up w a spastic sciatic nerve for almost a year.
