I added the emphasis, because I think that part needs to be stressed. I have had some absolutely horrible advice from doctors who didn't "get it". If you have a doc like that fire them in a hurry.
Oh and FWIW I have tried a few chiropractors that came highly recommended and found they ranged from useless to mildly harmful. Of course YMMV.
