ChiroPhysical

It’s my 200^th Unilocal review, and I’m glad to be writing it for Dr. Creed!
I’ve popped my knuckles, cracked my back, and freaked my dad out by popping my neck (in junior high). But I’d never had an actual, real, professional chiropractic adjustment before I went to Dr Creed’s office. (Chiropractic adjustment is a fancy way of saying «bone crackin’.»)
He used to be located over in Coppell (my doctors are oddly spread out: Coppell, Frisco, east Richardson, Dallas), and that’s where he was when I first went to go see him. But now he’s located WAY closer to home, which is a plus for me. He’s in the only office building on Beltline at Josey, on the 4^th floor. Seriously, you can’t miss it. Strip mall, strip mall, fast food, strip mall, random office building, fast food, strip mall, supermercado.
So when I first went to see Dr Creed, I told him that I’d never had an adjustment before and he asked me all sorts of questions and had me fill out forms. Where was there pain? What did I want to achieve through adjustments? Previous injuries, etc?
After all that, I lay face down on the adjusting table and he brought out this giant industrial massager thing to loosen up my back. I want one of those. Oh man. Made my whole stupid, pained back feel like jelly. After that stopped (sad), the fun part happened. Breathe in, breathe out. CRACK! oh boy. Lower back feels so much better! Breathe in, breathe out… CRACK! ahhhhh… upper back relief!
He adjusted my back, my neck (which I hadn’t been able to pop for about 10 years– I mysteriously stopped being able to pop my own neck some time in High School), even my hips and knees. It’s quite an interesting sound to hear when your neck gets adjusted/​popped in a way it’s never done before, but you feel AMAZING after. AMAZING.
All of the adjustments Dr Creed does for me are 100% manual. He used his hands and pressure to relieve the tension and, as I like to say, crack the bones. I believe he does do mechanical adjustments (which involves the use of an instrument to target the joint/​bone/​area in question– I believe the mechanical adjusting makes less of the awesome bone-​cracking noise, as my friend prefers it because she hates the noise), but mine were all manual, and so have been my boyfriend’s.
Not exactly sure how we found Dr Creed (I went once with the boyfriend, who’d been seeing Dr Creed for a couple of months, and am now hooked myself), perhaps through a friend of a friend… but I’m really glad that we did.
Go now and get your bones cracked, your back aligned, your legs evened out, and your knees popped. You’ll thank me later.
