Went for my first chiropractic appointment this afternoon and man was my mother ever wrong about doctors in that field (that and/or the one in pendleton was simply a quack with no clue wtf he was doing, i wouldn't rule it out, there seems to be a lot of that amidst the available medical sources of pendleton, they are LESS than expempliary).
Anyway, the doctor i worked with, Bill, was very nice and very helpful. He crunched my neck out and then bent me up like a pretzel and my whole spine popped like a string of firecrackers. I feel MUCH better now. I have a check up again next week to see how i'm doing. I have a couple of simple stretches to do a couple times a day, more than anything i really need to make sure i focus on my posture when at the computer and in general.
As always, i'm the doctors favorite patient (i'm every doctors favorite patient) since i'm so self aware of my body, i know my anatomy, i take REALLY good care of myself and practice preventative medicine on myself so i don't have to go in for too frequent check ups (doctors are spendy and busy and i don't like to waste their time or spend my money on it if i don't need it). Doctors like patients who 1-take care of themselves in general, it makes their jobs a LOT easier, and 2- who they KNOW will do their home care regimin like their supposed to (many patients don't and thusly the treatment is less effective).
i'm gonna get off the computer now and go stretch, don't want to over do it now that i'm finally feeling a little.
