Hey Sue, I have been going to a Chiropractor since I was 15 yrs old from falling off a slide when I was 5 years old. I will be 47 this month. I go once a week, because both of my hip are lock into place. Since I'm already there, he does my neck, upper shoulders, and mid back, because of the use of my walker. He also has, I call it, the Rack that pull my lower body from my upper body. I up to 85 lbs. When I come off, my drop foot works better. He doesn't know why. My believe is that's helping with my hamstring too. lol It's almost as good as sex. lol If you go, please let us know if it work for you too, Todd in Corpus Christi, TX TM since April 1, 2002 @ T-4 to T-8

I don't usually ask about opinions dealing with myself, but more often about concerns of other folks, but this time it's about me. Has anyone in our group ever used chiropractic treatment after TM? I have had TM for 10 years and are able to walk either unaided or with a cane or walker depending on the circumstances. Over the last few years, because of my gait issues, and the way I "waddle", I have developed hip pain on a daily basis. I have gotten approval from my neuro to see a chiropractor but there is still that little nagging voice in my head that tells me not to mess with my spine. I'd appreciate any thoughts you have on this. Thanks folks! Sue
