When I was going regularly to a chiro x-rays showed the work he was doing was opening the spaces the nerves spread out from the spinal cord in my back and neck that were closed up. They were closed up because of sitting at a computer so much. The work he was doing was re-aligning my bask so eventually my muscles would keep it that way. Have less upper back pain episodes between my shoulder blades from sitting at the computer but the main thing I really noticed was my grip strength increased significantly. He said it was because the nerves were opened up.

Going to a chiro was the only thing that would help my Mom with her legs waking her up hurting at night. Tried all kinds of stuff and finally her primary care physician scripted the chiro (which is very unusual). When she relaxed sleeping, after about an hour, her muscles would relax to let her back pinch the nerves going to her legs causing the pain. Had 3 different physical therapists that were telling us the same thing. Exercises they gave her helped, but the chiro's adjustment helped quicker and as the alzheimer's got worse she wouldn't do the exercises unless a physical therapist was making her do them. Basically had to build up her muscles to hold her back in proper alignment even when she was relaxed and sleeping.
