Hilarious! Is a dentist useful?

Yes – feeling better, more energy, less arthritis, sleeping better, more mobility, and maybe some soreness.
Everybody is different. A good chiropractor will do a careful evaluation, potentially take and necessary xrays to see the condition of the spine, and with that information, lay out the best plan possible for that patient. Chiropractic is not an overnight fix. Typically it took some time for your spine to get the way it is, and it typically will take some time to get better.

No
