Are chiropractic adjustments as therapy for Parkinsons beneficial or no in the long run?

Recently I found a GENTLE chiropractor & not a “bone crusher” (tried once) & I was convinced to try chiropractic adjustments 3 times / week for neck & back pain.For the last 3 weeks, I haven’t seen any improvement BUT EVERYBODY SAYS IT IS A SLOW RECOVERY COMPARING the same way we wear braces for the teeth.I know the Healing is from the INSIDE OUT as Dr John SARNO explains in his book: the mind body prescription.(Healing the body healing the pain)

I would not place chiropractic adjustments as therapy for Parkinsons in the list of preferred therapies that people with the symptoms say has helped them the most. Some people do report benefit from chiropractic adjustments. I suspect the problem lies in the fact that the muscular restrictions found with many symptoms of Parkinson’s create an inflexibility that makes adjustments painful for many people.

In some cases, the body will respond by tensing up more which of course is the reverse of what the chiropractor intends. Chiropractors who use gentle touch are more likely to get better results.

Every one’s body is different. We cannot make a list of good and bad therapies for people with the symptoms of Parkinson’s because the conditions that create the neurological challenges are different for each person. Listen carefully to how your body responds to a therapy such as chiropractic adjustments. Your body will tell you loud and clear whether the therapy is helping or not.

The best approach I think is to use your own good intuitive insights and give it a try if you are called to explore the therapy as a possibility. I should say however that my research shows there are other therapies that show up more often as beneficial in reducing symptoms.
