I know people with chronic back problems who go to their chiropractor
once a month. It seems to help. Hubby had a bad back problem one
time and a friend offered a coupon that basically covered one visit.
When he got there he found out that our HMO covered it and all he
needed to do was co-pay - so he gave our friend the coupon back. He
says he felt much better after the "treatment", but you're right -
they do hound you for return visits. I think that's the primary
reason why I wouldn't go to one. I don't want to be hounded, even if
it only costs me $10 a visit.
