Good Chiro in the CT CBD?

[DrewChan]

Does anyone know of a good chiropracter in Cape Town CBD?

Had a weird pain like my back needs to click in my right shoulder blade for about 3 weeks, hurts especially when I breathe in deeply (to sneeze), or if I am getting up in the morning.

Depends what the problem is. I'd say go to a GP first and then go from there. Could possibly need physio.

Go to a Chiro, if you have back pain and it feels like you need to click something back into place, then going to a GP / Physio is not going resolve that. Let the Chiro diagnose you.

The only type of Chiro you must avoid are the ones who tell you they can cure illness etc. A proper Chiro will handle assessed back pain properly.

Or they'll 'fix' it and it's better for a couple of weeks 'till you need your 'fix' again.

The conclusions of the American neurosurgeons in their recent paper speak for themselves:

Chiropractic manipulation of the cervical spine can produce dissections of the cranial and cervical segments of the vertebral and carotid arteries. Given the popularity of chiropractic treatment, the incidence of this phenomenon is most likely underreported. These arterial injuries can be severe, producing adverse neurological sequelae and even death (including 31% of patients in this series). Consequently, aggressive endovascular and surgical techniques may be required to restore vessel patency and to preserve neurological function."

Does your tin foil hat come in different colours?

You don't provide anything to support your comments, even your comments are bordering on trolling

Have you been to a chiropractor yourself?
