    Since everyone on our production team is in crunch right now, the management arranged for some complimentary chair massages yesterday. It was my first such experience, but I doubt it’s something I would ever arrange for myself. The sensory experience for me was completely momentary, which lessens my opinion of its value. Do they have people who specialize in popping backs, or is that what chiropractors do? That’s what I could go for more than a chair massage, a good back popping.

      I think a really good massage should stay with you for a while afterwards. Maybe yours was just too short or somehow not effective enough. I wouldn’t know firsthand, though.

      A chiropractor probably wouldn’t pop your back–they’d probably tell you to stop popping it yourself! That’s what happened when Steve saw a chiropractor a while back. The guy said that some of Steve’s vertebrae were seized up, so he was compensating by popping his back, which made other parts of his back hypermobile and kind of evened things out. He wanted Steve to stop popping entirely and get some gradual treatments to get the seized-up parts working again. I think it was a real, valid diagnosis and not just an attempt to get Steve to pay for more treatments, because he seemed very legitimate / on the up-and-up.

      It seems to make sense.
      Let the masseurs do massage and the chiros do chiropractic.

      in choosing a chiropractor you should include its credibility as a professional in that profession because you are trusting your health with that's you really need to choose the one you would think will be the best for that service

      They won't pop your back dear, but rather have your body prepare and adapt to its environment thus making it perform better.
