It doesn't hurt and is a good idea to maybe get a second opinion. Just as a medical dr there are differant opinions.
When Ben does anything he always explains what the body is doing and what the procedure he uses does to fix the problem. He educates you as well as fixes you. so if your DR didn't tell you ask why so many visits and what they will do for you.
It is important as a patient to be knowledgable in all areas of your care.
I totally agree and that has been my experience. My cp does not encourage me to buy anything from her or charge different prices. She takes all the time I need to answer questions and show me stretches that will help to keep me aligned. And we talk about nutrition when she is asked. She is fabulous and will be part of my health practices as long as long as she is practicing.
