Get a diagnosis, and then IF the diagnosis warrants it, maybe check a chiropractor's office that has a qualified acupuncturist on staff.
Agree 100% (surprise, surprise). And I'm not against chiropractic, I've referred patients to chiropractors on occasion, but ONLY AFTER I've made a definitive diagnosis and I'm sure that chiropractic wouldn't make the patient worse. I've also buried patients who have gone to chiropractors first without a diagnosis.
