I can crack my back on my own. You may be causing more problems. The most important part of adjustments is proper positioning, which is not feasible on your own. Any joint is capable of the “pop” sound. Along with the release of nitrous oxide (popping sound) comes the release of endorphins. Endorphins will give you a brief sense of pain relief, making you think you’re cured. The pain will likely return 20-25 minutes later. Over adjusting joints will create instability and predispose the joint to degeneration.
Once I start seeing a chiropractor, I will have to continue seeing one for the rest of my life. It is not necessary to continue seeing a chiropractor once they have taken care of your main complaint. You are never obligated to continue treatment. Many chiropractors recommend occasional visits to maintain optimal health ranging from 2x/ month to biannually depending your lifestyle and the condition of your body. People often find that chiropractors can help with more than just their main complaint and wish to continue treatment.
You only have to see a chiropractor when you are in pain. Chiropractors take preventative measures to ensure that problems do not occur in the future. Some people see a chiropractor simply for a check-up, to make sure joints and muscles are functioning properly.
