serrif Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Hello All, Is it possible that anyone out there would know of a Clunk Click type of Chiropractor anywhere in theVendee.?It's not the gentle massage I need but the good old sound of a crunch in the back. In anticipation.....Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5-element Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Serrif, I can't help as I am not in your area. But I can tell you the name of that manoeuvre on your back that sounds and feels like something is really happening - they call it a "high velocity thrust" and I have always loved the sound of that expression and the images it conjures. [:D] Good luck in your quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunday Driver Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 If you search Pages Jaunes under Chiropractie and Vendee, you'll find three in La Roche sur Yon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serrif Posted July 29, 2008 Author Share Posted July 29, 2008 Thank you both for your information. The vital page in 'Pages jaunes', would you believe it, are missing? This is not a problem I can look at someone elses. Am I right in assuming that you are involved in the practice '5-element'? if so would an osteopath do the same spinal manipulation? I have found in the past that this gives almost instant relief. Thank you again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Can't you look at Pages jaune online ? - or is that what you mean ? [8-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frogslegs Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 It's an oesteopath you require not a chiropractor! unfortunately I only know the ones in the Deux Sevres and Dordogne. Bonne Chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Riff-Raff Element Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I know one in the Vendée. In my village, as it happens. He's English. His wife (whom I have spoken with once in the last four years - I don't think we're her kind of people) tells me I was at university with him, but I have no recollection of this. Actually I have little recollection of much at university outside of working harder than perhaps was entirely necessary, but hey-ho.If you're interested PM me and I'll get his 'phone number for you.

serrif Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 Thank you Riff Raff, I know the Village you are in and I am aware of the contact you mention, however he is not the type of Chiropractor I am looking for. I thnk he goes for the more gentle touch. Many thanks...............PS. Nice Gites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I think Frogslegs is right - if you are looking for 'clunk link' you are looking for an osteopathe, in my experience chiropractors deal with more with muscles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nell Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I know this is an old posting and not even from my area, but can anyone recommend a chiropractor in the Perigueux or Angouleme area. I have checked out the yellow pages but recommendation would be better....Also - in the yellow pages it states (Activité : chiropractie (soins hors d'un cadre réglementé)) - does this mean treatment is not covered by CPAM and I don't need to do via my doctor. Yes I know lots of things here do not require a doctor first, just asking to get straight in my mind, before I try to get my back straight !!!!

John Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I agree with them too. Chiropractic for the upper body may include treatment for the neck and upper back, the jaw and neck, elbow and arm pain such as tennis elbow, shoulder pain including frozen shoulder and hand and wrist pain."Better to know what it is..."Chiropractor Chandlers Ford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
