I'd agree with that- -when I screwed up my back a few years ago -- I went to a chiropractor -- BIG HUGE MISTAKE- ended up making my problems worse-- the physical therapist, worked on strengthening the muscles - not just tweaking the bones- they fixed the problem and it doesn't require me going back every two weeks for another adjustment.
