In the past I've seen a couple of chiropractors, and I generally would rather not see them at all. I'm not sure their methods are really that good for that body...sudden jerky movements to align your body?!

Anyway, I did something weird to my knee after running to the bus yesterday. I don't usually get knee pain in my left, but right now, it just feels like there's something from preventing it from bending smoothly all the way. Like, I'd probably not do any squats at the gym right now, just in case.

In the past, I've had chiropractors adjust my knee, and I feel safe enough with that. (One chiropractor was aligning my neck, and I'd leave with headaches instead.) So I quickly did a search and found a place close to my office. The clinic was nice!

I told the chiropractor that I was there for my knee, but since it was my first visit, we did a whole assessment. I already know I am stiff in the neck and back from sitting at the computer so much. I didn't want to address the situation.  He did some adjustments and stuff. I left with him not even touching my knee! So my knee discomfort is still there. This is not a chronic thing!

I do have to say that my neck feels better though. He said with my stiffness, he was surprised I wasn't getting more headaches (When he mentioned the stiffness thing, I concluded that I need to up my upper body workouts at the gym more). And my left leg is shorter that my right, so he has advised me to get orthotics. "That will get rid of your knee problems." He says I could even get back into running if I chose.

I'm still skeptical...We'll see. I have another appointment on Thursday. But I am ticked off that I went for my knee injury and got a long-term plan instead!! And he focused more on my neck and head instead!!
