SweggyCow Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 Hi, I've been curious to know what's the difference between these 2 profession. On a side note, I've always wanted to fix this pain at my shoulder/neck but I'm not sure to actually get a massage or a session with a chiropractor? I'm also not sure how to approach the chiropractor about what to fix. Does anyone have any recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swisse Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 to my knowledge: correct me if im wrong.. Chiro: tackles the problem through the spine and bone alignment Tuina: Tackles the problem through push and pulling of muscles, but may also do some bone alignment Massage: purely tackling through muscles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fab Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 Also check out https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteopathy For a start, I suggest u try out TCM at those charity clinics first. Reasons being lower charges compared to chiropractic, n physician can advise whats your problem.

fatguy Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Chrio is mainly for your spine. And u will need a few sessions to feel the benefits. Price also not cheap. It won't help with medical conditions. They juz help a line your spine. Quote check me out and my interest... =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
