just looking for a bit of advice? Has anyone on here used a Chiropractor? I have been told that they are good for helping with re-alignment of the spine/hips etc. My left leg is my affected side…after a short distance I start limping and have been like this since my last relapse (about three years ago), however I am having a lot of hip and lower back pain too. I do feel like I am sometime lob sided before I start walking, if that makes sense. Now as I am limping I know this can then knock alignment out too so had wondered about trying a chiropractor but wondered if anyone here had tried this and also curious to know if the results were beneficial or not?
I have used a chiropractor and osteopath in the past and can’t say it made any difference. The best results I had were from a physio, but you do need to keep following the programme to maintain the benefits.
I would recommend a neuro physio for helping with body re-alignment. I have been seeing one regularly for years and believe she has made a huge difference to my mobility and reduced stiffness and pain from that. However, I have been seeing her once a week for at least five years (less frequently for the years before that).
Of course, if you want to go down the holistic route, there are other options. I am biased as my wife has just passed her final assessment to become a VHT practitioner (she’s already a practitioner in the equine version) but she has had some very impressive results with her case studies.
