Chiropractic adjustments: worth the hype?

Hey, I’ve got two issues: my lower back and my elbow.
My spine has been crooked since I was a kid—scoliosis and a bit of kyphosis, basically an S-curve. I try to maintain good posture, but the lower back pain has become unbearable lately because of all the dancing I do!
The second issue is my elbow. I had three surgeries on it about ten years ago, and now it’s just scarred over. I can't even bend my arm all the way anymore.

Question: Can chiropractic work actually help reduce this back pain or improve my arm's mobility at all? Has anyone here actually used a chiropractor before? Physical therapy is out of the question for me—between dance and my job, I just don't have the time.
Right now, I'm just getting massages because that's the only thing providing any relief.

If you’ve been to one or know a great chiropractor, please send some info my way.

thanks 😉

Honestly, I don't think a chiropractor is going to cut it here. I mean, how do you have the time to squeeze in a chiropractic adjustment but can't make it to physical therapy? It feels like you might be looking for a quick fix... and unfortunately, those almost never work for issues like this.
