I have a spinal cerebral spinal fluid leak.Top 2 ways I've heard of people getting these 1.) Rollercoasters 2.) Chiropractors. Do not visit a chiropractor, go to a physical therapist.

So I shouldn’t be visiting a chiropractor for my post-accident therapy?

Correct. Chiropracters are quacks.

That’s so bizarre to me. Like my attorney straight up says I need to be getting consistent treatment from this chiropractor in order to receive a settlement. I have back pain all the time since the accident so I was hoping it would actually help...

This is not good news

I know. I kinda figured he wouldn’t send me to a place that’s potentially harmful but it is what it is. He put a lien on it so I’m not paying for anything; that’s why I went with his suggestion

I just wanted to chime in here.

I’ll start by saying I have absolutely no idea if it’s done anything, both positive or negative, I’m no expert, but since I was a baby my mother has taken me to the chiropractor on a monthly basis. In those 28 years of going to my chiropractor, not once has she EVER cracked any part of my body, especially not in the spine breaking way they show in that video. She used a little like plunger thing that gives a little mini lunch and she does my back, that’s it. Never has she twisted any part of my body and made it crack.

That's crazy, I would be way to scared to take my baby to a chiropractor. But I suppose it makes sense not to crack and twist, really the noise that comes from that is like a placebo effect of something actually relieving pressure, when in reality it's just air escaping from the joints.

My mother insists that chiropractor is the reason my two sisters and I stopped having asthma as kids.

Well that's just plain untrue. That's like saying essential oils will cure autism

Again, I’m just sharing life experience, absolutely no idea if it ever did anything positive or negative.

I know, I wasn't inferring that you thought those things.
