How much do they usually cost? A decent one. I know it can vary, but an estimate would be good if anyone has one.

Re: Chiropractor
I heard a chiropractor can work miracles on runners, even people who think they have nothing wrong with them. A chiropractor can find something out of alignment and BAM, fixes it and you feel better than ever when your out running.

Re: Chiropractor
Well, I can't help with what the cost is, but a girl on my XC team's dad is a chiropractor, and he gave us a free adjustment before our state meet...idk if it made us faster, but it felt really good!

Re: Chiropractor
i'd guess it'd cost as much as a doctor visit or something.

When you say it that way you make it sound weird/bad... but it shouldn't be... he's a professional chiropractor... that's his job. And Chiropractors don't do massages either... they crack/align joints.

Re: Chiropractor
We have a guy around here who charges after you've been all checked out. You just pay as much as you think the visit was worth. It's good for him, because he knows what he's doing and gets paid a bunch for most visits, and good for us because if we don't have loads of money on-hand we can still get all fixed up.
It's nice. But I don't know how much a regular chiropractor costs.

Re: Chiropractor
Okay my chiropractor costs me $40 or $45 a visit, I think a certain number of visits a year are covered by some insurances. It has basically been a miracle for me, bc i have minor scoliosis and my back/hips/neck tend to get thrown out of alignment, and if i don't fix it, then I start getting injured.
