My Back Pain - Physical Therapy

I had a follow up appointment with my primary practice doctor and she was concerned about my numb foot.  She suggested the possibility of an MRI to check the extent of my injury if I did not get any better. She said she was glad I was making progress with the chiropractor but reminded me that if I needed more, just give her a call. I told her my plan was to give the chiro 3 months, and if it still wasn't better I would get back to her. 

In the meantime, the chiropractor started me on physical therapy to strengthen my back.  It wasn't going to fix what happened in the past but it would prevent me from having another injury in the future.  So I spent half an hour getting adjustments and spine stimulation and half an hour with the physical therapists on the gym side of the office.  I realized how smart this chiro clinic was, they get you in the door, offer you the chiro services to make you better, send you to the physical therapists to continue your progress then they would offer you a gym membership to keep you coming back.  Very smart businessman.
