Much against my better judgement I was persuaded by my daughter to see a chiropractor who specialised in "network spinal analysis". I didn't have anything specifically wrong with my back but did suffer occasional problems which seem to be typical of most ancient males who have spent too much time sitting in motorcars.
As it involved a series of treatments I was initially convinced that was a scam but, after three sessions, I suddenly found that I was quite naturally standing much straighter. At this time I spent three weeks invigilating at the local university and this involved being on my feet for the best part of 6 hours a day.
To my amazement I found I could stand for hours, perfectly erect, and feel quite comfortable. I now just go for a top up treatment every couple of years or so and the measurements that were taken before and after treatment show that my spine is much straighter than it used to be.
One day I was sitting in reception waiting for my appointment and a lady came out of the treatment room looking totally shocked. She claimed that this was the first time in 25 years that she was without pain.
The amazing thing about it is that the treatment does not involve any painful manipulation whatsoever. You just lie face down on a bed, fully clothed and the chiropractor gently touches your spine or neck for a few seconds at a time, maybe about 5 times in a 15 minute treatment. The only pain you feel is in the wallet area although you can feel temporary discomfort for a day or so after treatment as your immune system gets used to the changes in your nervous system.
Over the years I have recommended it to many friends and every singe one has been pleased with the results.
