When I have neck/back problems, I go to a chiropractor, and I've always had good results. I disagree with the "once you start you can't stop" theory. Sometimes it takes a few visits to get the muscles working again, to hold everything in place. But I will go a few years without the chiropractor, then if I pull something out in my back, I will go for a few visits and be all fixed up! I have to respectfully disagree with Debbie. (Sorry Deb) My mom had a bulging disc, and the chiropractor was able to, very gently, and through a series of visits, get the muscles around the disc working again,
