@sharonmcg, lesson learned from just experienced visits and numerous chiropractic adjustments i had to find one that gave a couple of things. There are good chiropractic doctors and then those that are building their practice. I like those that have been in the field for years, secondly I like either massage b4 adjustments or heating pad to loosen up the muscle for a warmer adjustment. It goes back into place easier. Lastly, if I still hurt or ache I let him or her know. Sometimes a second adjustment is all that is needed to set it back in place. An inexperienced chiropractor can do more harm than good. I check reviews and word of mouth by people who have been treated by the same chiropractor. Don't feel anxiety over what should be a good adjustment. Let them know if a issue exists. If this doesn't work, find another chiropractor.
