Neck manipulationsRating: (votes: 0) They can use an "activator" which is a spring loaded mallot type instrument on your neck instead. If the doc has an issue with not manipulating your neck, then I suggest seeing another one.Hope you feel better! Comment:
You always have the right to refuse all, or part of treatment. I'd discuss your concerns about neck manipulation with the chiropractor up front so you don't have to worry about telling him "no" in the moment. I can't really comment on how you should treat your pinched nerve, as I think that would be medical advice. Good luck to you.
Comment:
can you get a 2nd opinion?
Comment:
You can refuse. The chiro can also do deep tissue massage (DTM) instead, like my physio did with my neck after my MVA. But the chiro I saw was brilliant - he could manipulate you so that I hardly felt any pain at all. I think it's worth trying once, but do ask re the DTM.You might have to try diff chiropractors to see what diff methods they use.Great to hear ur feeling better, let us know how the chiro goes! I will be thinking of you
Comment:
Sorry, per the TOS we can't offer medical advice on this board. I would suggest contacting your PCP/neurologist.In reference to the "right to refuse" question, you always have the right to refuse something you are not comfortable with.
Comment:
Tait is correct. Take care.
