- Since I started spending much of my workday at a desk and/or a pc, I've noticed
- an increase in neck, shoulder and upper back pain. I've tried stretching
- exercises at work and they do provide some short-term relief...but I still ache
- at the end of the day.
-
- I am considering chiropractic care. A co-worker gave me a gift certificate for
- a visit to her doctor, so there won't be any cash at stake for the first visit.
-
- Suddenly, many well-meaning friends and family members are warning me..."it
- will cost an arm and a leg"..."it does more harm than good"..."they're a bunch
- of quacks"..."you just need to get more exercise"...and so on.
-
- Does anyone have any advice? Any experiences (good or bad) to share?
-
- Thanks in advance!
