I have neck pain and stiffness. My chiropractor insists I need 3 months of neck adjust (which didn’t seem to help) before getting cervical traction treatment. I like to do cervical traction asap because I always feels so relief when I ask my wife to "pull my neck". Can I forget about the chiropractor and just buy one home cervical traction device and do it myself?
I am a chiropractor, and there is more to neck pain and stiffness than just adjusting the neck, there could be some muscle issues, cranial issues, hip issues. If you are unhappy with the results of your current chiropractor, don’t give up on chiropractic, find one that will fix the problem. I am a member of an organisation that focuses on finding the problem. Go to www.sorsi.com to find a doctor near you or if you are in Minnesota, email me or go to my website at www.healinghandschiro.com.
