Some like to go back every month or two for a 'tune up' as they say but to me that's like running off to the doctor every time you sneeze. I had to go several times after a motorcycle accident, then years later again after a work injury, then again a decade later because I had taken up running which for a big guy is murder on your lower back. each time the joints were corrected, the pain went and I learned a lesson on what not to do in life.

I met a guy in a flea market once when I was in a bad state, I was bending over awkwardly and supporting myself with a hand on one knee. I heard a voice behind me say " Whatever you do, don't get the operation" I turned around and there was a guy in a wheelchair.
