Doctors, doctors, doctors--just enough readin' to make 'em dangerous.

Truth be told I've had less than a handful of good doctors.  They try to be helpful.  They want to be helpful, but it's results that are important and not intentions.

The title to this video sounds promising.  But as you watch this chiropractor, Dr. Gregory Johnson, you get the feeling that he doesn't have the right techniques.  I don't know for sure.   I am no chiropractor.   He starts his patients off with a spinal decompression. Sounds impressive, even fancy.   But in practice he is pulling and yanking the skull away from the Atlas disc.  That can't feel good.  Wouldn't that have the same feeling of being pulled by, say, a mugger or by an opponent in wrestling? I don't know but that yanking can't feel too good.  I mean he wraps a towel around the neck to buffer the blow.  Then his patient says after moving to another table "Oh, my neck feels really good."

Give a look and a listen.  I just think that being gentle and going slow better serves the long-term results. 

I phoned this doctor.  He's out of business.  Can't say for sure that his treatments and moves on his patient are particularly out of the ordinary, but I just think that people require a bit more proof that something works than to have a spokesman, a patient who is getting free treatment, offering a glowing report.
