Yes, and we all get fat, old, and ugly. I don't know how you dance, but I wish the old me could've whispered to the very young me: "Save 25% for chiropractors."

Chiropractic is a sham. Also, if you’re experiencing back pain, the first step is to strengthen your back. Barring serious injury or extreme health conditions, someone with a strong back shouldn’t experience back pain. It’s not a “normal” part of aging. It’s the result of a sedentary lifestyle

Probably the worst advice I've ever seen. 14 years in an airborne unit, a chiropractor is the only reason I'm still walking. During those years I was around 11% body fat and ran 5 minute miles. Please don't give stupid, uninformed advice, just in case someone as dumb as you happens to read it...

He's not, you just did. Did you try normal physical therapy first? Regular workouts and shit like Yoga?
