If you have any in your area, I would look for an osteopathic doctor (D.O.) before I would look for a chiropractor. D.O.s are medical doctors like M.D.s, but they have, in addition to a medical school curriculum, also been trained in osteopathic manipulation. So they can do similar manipulations to chiropractors but, unlike chiropractors, have a thorough medical education to back them up. The problem is, D.O.s can be difficult to find (there's an osteopathic medical school in my hometown, but elsewhere, forget it!), and not all of them do manipulation--you'd have to find one in family practice or whose specialty is manipulation (because, just like M.D.s, they can specialize in surgery or pediatrics or whatever, and that wouldn't do you much good  ). Anyway, if you want more information, try these pages: web page and web page.
