One thing about Chiropractors is you will never get healed and you will always need to go in for 'adjustments', what you need is someone to find the root of your issue and find a long term fix.
I'll echo what Ustwo has said here about the PT. Seeing a physical therapist helped me more than anything with my horrible back problems. Furthermore, if you are interested in manipulation, go see an osteopath. All of them know osteopathic manipulation and most of them are crosstrained in chiropractic. Additionally, they're medical doctors who went to medical school, so when they see a problem, they know who to refer you to.
