a click or a crack?

Went to the Chiropractor today. It was an experience. Never been to one before... and didn't really know what they are about. But since the doc for baby referred me to them... I thought I should give it a try. The Chiropractor said that the end of my spinal cord is pushed to an awkward position and therefore putting pressure on some of my nerves. The reason for being so is cos with the baby growing outwards and the weight is causing me to lose my posture. Therefore putting pressure on the spine.

He was trying to "realign" me... was laying on my side... with bottom leg straighten and top leg bended across. And he "pushed" at a certain spot... a couple of times later... I heard a crack... well... not really a crack... sound more like a soft click.

It feels a little better now... not as painful on the right side... but the left is still the same. Anyways... am going back on Mon for the 2nd treatment. I'll have to walk more now... sit less... and have to sit with a right posture, no slouching cos that will put more pressure on the affected area. And when laying down, try to keep the knees up... that will relieve the spine from being "pushed" more.

Ok... that's the queue for me to get off this chair!! Tata...
