Pamme I see a chiropractor every two weeks for a condition which concerns my neck, upper back and head not originally directly related or caused by PD. I also use that chiropractor to take out my muscle knots from PD drugs and minor accidents that put my bones in places where they aren't suppose to go. I have received treatments via chiropractor for over 20 years now. I have had PD for 5 years. The medical profession refuses to resolve my problem other than by prescribing all kinds of drugs as a solution, which put me on another planet, which only aggravates not assists, rather than dealing with the problem with surgery which after thirty plus years appears to be the only solution. However that is an issue between me and my current MDs' I find that from being very active I still work, play sports and look after my garden, etc. that a lot of muscle aches are solved when the chiropractor accu pressures those very sore and sensitive muscles and places everything in its place through the realignment process My program is unique in that my chiropractor knows about PD and has taken a lot of time to study and learn about PD and probably knows as much if not more than my medical doctors(not my neuro) about my PD and its affects on muscles and bones in the body We also have chiropractor's who specialize in PD patient treatments This has been a very sensitive topic in the past and before we get into a list war from the ayes and nayes and If you want more info please email me directly Whether your husband, will be helped, and to what extent will probably be proportional and depend upon how knowledgeable the chiropractor is about PD! I hope that your husband will get relief.
