chiropractor in Northern VA....Jan

[Guest guest]

Oh I have to totally aggree with you Jan! I found a wonderful Chiro

that I don't know what I would have done w/o him. I felt better

after the first visit, I was in so much pain! Now I go as needed and

actualy went almost a year w/o an adjustment! I can always tell when

I need to go though! The Regular M.D. wasn't able to help me AT ALL,

only giving me 'anti-inflammitories' which we all know that's not

going to 'fix' my problem! I really enjoy this group and all the

helpful info you all share! Thanks!
