Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ten years?? That's unpossible.

Oh geeeze, that means the Nilly tour was also 10 years ago this summer. And K-Bug having her wrist surgery was 10 years ago (I think Teppy and K-Bug went under the knife on the same day). Unpossible.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Um, Chiropractic isn't at all woo for skeletal problems. Like the time I threw out my back twisting while lifting a 30 lb scoot (backstage, in the dark, feet on different leveled platforms). Agonizing, debilitating pain. Worker's comp gave me some aspercreme and a back brace. Went to a chiro who adjusted my sacrum, and I walked out with zero pain after a single adjustment. Ribs pop out of alignment? Good luck getting that back in by myself(and i try!). Chiro fixes it in single visit. Yeah, it happens again because I'm not super vigilant about doing all my strengthening exercises...but that's my fault for being lazy. After breaking my foot the cuboid bone twisted slightly which caused serious ligament pain. That one took 3 adjustments to fix, but now it's not a problem.

Sure, there's some charlatans out there but spinal manipulation itself can be very useful in certain therapeutic situations. I had two different physical therapists refer me to a chiropractor for specific back problems, and it's extremely common for PT places to have Chiropractors on staff.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks for the compliments on Fido! (I didn't realise it was a he until I hit the penis--in my head the dog I like is female). And it was supposed to be a doberman, but I muffed the proportions (this is my third dog drawn in ten years), so I will call him a mutt instead.

I did not think of a pointillism pointer, but he is named Spot, so there's that. I'm not pun dead, but low rent.

I am going home (I've been ordered to), and I will even out the range of values on his coat: [link]

Msbelle, if you have a high contrast, good shadows picture of Mac you want me to try with--I can't promise anything, I'm not reliable with likenesses--I can give it a shot.

I don't think that's an accurate characterisation when the School of Chiropractic makes the big claims, and those who limit the scope of their powers are technically going against Word Of God.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

The adjustments and manipulation != chiropractic medicine as a whole.

You can, in fact, get that shit done by a doctor (DO, in my case) before you get a PT prescription, and not pay into the Woo.

Nope. Has to have been 9 years ago, because Nilly Tour was the same year I got pregnant with Lilly, who turns 8 in a week.

Thrive to spite them

I think there are some chiropractors who just treat muscular skeletal issues. But according to Chripractor.com Chripractors can provide partial or full relief for the following:

Astham
Ear Infections
Fertility issues
MS
Respiratory infections
Frequent Cold and flus
GI problems

Another site said they can treat ezcema and another site claims it can boost the immune system.

For a long time, based on the claims of the founder, there were claims that it could cure deafness.
