I didn't know she was going to do it, massage was too strong but she only had 1 power setting, anyway the neck click was truly amazing, maybe try it if you have neck issues

Maybe.

there used to be an American chiropractor on Pattaya North Road (in a side street) many years ago.

does anyone knows if he still exists?

I heard he had passed away ( before Covid) I think he was a mature aged farang if I recall 

You can only believe in god, anything else is either proven or unproven. The latter goes for chiropractic which is not an evidence based science. The fact that patients benefit doesn't mean too much, as many don't and you cannot predict who will and will not. Especially spinal issues have a high rate of fluctuating symptoms and spontaneous recovery. I want to caution against manipulation of the neck. As a spine specialist I have seen quadriplegia's after manipulation or other serious adverse events. Else, if you have a condition that benefits, count your blessings, otherwise, if there is no effect, don't keep trying. There is a saying among spine surgeons that "nature cures the disease while the therapist entertains the patient".

Yes apparently Neck Cracking can be dangerous 

 

I had SCIATICA a few years ago,the pain went down my side leg.

 

The chiropractor was useless 

It healed on its own eventually 

I

As for my back I need it walked in every week and cracked back into place ,I had my nephew walk on it last week ,Crack Crack crack it sounds especially in my lower  back .

 

Unfortunately in Thailand I could not find a Thai big enough to walk and crack my back ;I could hardly walk until I came across a overweight motorbike taxi driver who I paid 100b to quickly walk over my back loud cracks into place best feeling in ages ,far better than sex 

No.

I do not.

 

But....

 

I believe in SPINAL TAP.......

 

If you're young and the problem is not chronic from years of wear and tear then realignment can work.
For me, diagnosed with osteoarthritis, I've spent thousands of pounds at chiropractors in the vain hope a "crack" would heal everything.

Not so.
For me, tumeric, keeping active and stretching is the best at minimising pain without drugs.
