Use go to a physical therapist or a massusse.

I had a brain stem stroke at the age of 42 from a chiro. i was in the hospital for seven weeks and could not drive a car for six months..As the mom of a 4th & 5th grader, slowed me down a lot at first.
Had to relearn to walk, talk, swallow and write. Really took two years out of my life to relearn things. Not something i'd recommend if you like yourself. Really messed with how I saw myself as a person. Zaps your confidence and esteem for some reason. Makes you more fearful of life curves. A physician pointed out the neck is the most vulnerable area on your body and other one pointed out how many movies show some spy killing someone with a quick turn of the neck..

Be safe with yourself...I had gone to chiros for ten years, like sometimes once a week but the time a chiro recom. 2 x in a day even spread out with 4 days in between, lasted 2 x. Then this happened.
