My mother has been experiencing back pain for a few months now, and insists her chiropractor is making it "tolerable."

Whenever I plead with her to see a doctor or a physical therapist, or suggest that maybe the chiropractor is the problem she gets very upset with me. There is no convincing her of any alternative, she won't even get a second opinion and I'm not quite sure how to help at this point.

My sister got her got her an appointment to see a massage therapist, which she went to and said nothing but good things about, but she will not budge on the chiropractor.

I dunno maybe I'll just shut up about it, but it all just seems like quackery to me.

Squat University has hundreds of free videos on youtube that give good exercises that target weak muscles. She will need to see a real doctor who can figure out what's wrong.
