Question
I have been treated for  the last 6 years for scoliosis and for a
neck problem that my chiorpractor explained as my neck being
straight and not having a natural curve The neck is a big
problem for me always going out after adjustments giving me  
headaches. Recently he adjusted my neck but it wasnt working
I had a necklace on thin with a square  turquise stone attached  
after taking my neacklace off he adjusted my neck and showed
me using the reflex test on the fingers.  I was amazed but a little
skeptical still he said the metal was affecting the fibres and
subsequently working against the adjustment.  Is this True?
Have you ever heard of this befor?  

Answer
Hello Bianca,

   No, I have never heard of that before.  I would ask him for the scientific evidence behind his theory!  You may want to think about strengthening the musculature around the neck, this will help your adjustments hold and support the spine.

Thank you,
Dr. Brendon O'Brien D.C.
