You first need to determine why you need relief. Chiro's are not for everyone. I had a herniated disc for years and I saw multiple chiro's who diagnosed my condition as facet syndrome because that is something they can treat and keep you coming back. Once I got an MRI I found a chiro in Houma by the name of Dr. Dufrene with St. Charles chiropractic. He worked with my injury by doing everything he could besides the normal quack adjustments. He has a VAX machine which stretches you slightly to open up the joints and allow fluid to naturally heal. It is not a permanent fix but will give someone with a herniated disc much relief. The other thing is doing simple resistance exercises with similar to machines in your local gym.

In my situation the only long term fix is RFA 'nerve burn'. My first one lasted 3 years before the pain returned and just had my second one 3 weeks ago. Pain is at 0%.

As far as an adjustment goes, you can do your own at home with a foam roller to start with. Once you learn how to "crack your back" on your own, you will be able to do it just about anywhere. Any hard stable surface with a rounded edge like a granite counter top or a desk at waist height. I used to fish everyday for a living and I would adjust myself on my yeti ice chest. I've done it a propane bottle too.

Look up "self adjustment foam roller" on youtube. The firmer the better. Soft ones won't work. You will basically hug yourself as tight as you can (insert OT masturbation joke here) and lift your butt off the floor while pushing yourself back and forth on the roller.

If you choose to go to a chiro, one of the first things every quack will tell you is that your hips are out of line. While true for some, its not true for most people. This allows them to keep you coming back so they can treat you forever.

One last thing that is associated with a herniated disc is muscle tension and inflammation. For that, massage and dry needling worked great for me before I got the RFA. A good chiro such as Dr. Dufrene will know how to do it correctly. What out for quacks that only stick 2 needles in you. That's bullshite.
