I agree. I have had both chiro and massage. both can help a lot.

There is a type of massage therapist who does deep tissue myofascial release. It’s called MFR. There is a section in the forum here that discusses MFR. Spine surgeon recently told me to go do it and I have to pay out-of-pocket, but I should’ve done it many years ago and if One doesn’t get relief from surgery pain from the bones then the muscles are probably the issue. In my case that’s been the problem so I go for MFR twice a month. In addition when I go to physical therapy, I find a physical therapist that also does some MFR or manual work . For a while, Medicare wasn’t paying for them to do that but now it’s covered in my PT. It’s going to be a long slow process to unglue that facia in my case the first several times I went to the MFR therapist I would feel drunk when I left the office and I had to be careful driving home , I was fatigued for two days until the toxins left my body each time I’ve gone. It’s gotten better and better. There’s a lot that’s been gummed up in my body over the years!
