Chiropractic while on the road

I'll be retiring in 3 months and shortly there after, hitting the road for a month of travel. DW & I both see a chiropractor regularly and are wondering what our options are while on the road.
Anyone experience this? If so, what options do you recommend?
  • I see chiropractors in different locals while RVing. I try to talk with locals to get a recommendation. That can be anyone...RV park staff, people in the grocery store, etc. If someone gives me a name, I ask that person to please describe the technique the doctor uses on them. I google a chiropractor's name to see if I can find any reviews. When I call their office, I ask if the doctor uses the technique that I like.

    I've done pretty well with these methods.
  • My wife needs chiropractic care on a regular basis. We are not full timers but spend 5 months a year on the road. It is a bit of a hit and miss proposition. We do have some regular haunts where she has found good care. There are different techniques used by chiropractors. You need to know what you need and ask the right questions. My wife can't use practitioners that use the classic crack the neck technique. I know this post wasn't probably much help, but good luck.
  • I've full time 11 years. Using the phone book and recommendations I've found good chiropractors wherever I go.
    Sometimes I get one I don't like so I look further.

    Depending on your destination, there could be walk in chiropractors. I know that, here in Loveland, where a lot of tourists like to stay/visit while enroute to the High Country, there are several walk in clinics. One close by advertises "no waiting" and "$25/visit". When you reach a destination and plan to be there a bit, just google "walk in chiropractors near me (or insert city/town name)" and you may be surprised that there are some in your area. Much will depend on the size of the town/city you'll be near/in.
  • I'm not in that situation but, did you discuss it with your current chiropractor?

    Maybe he/she will have some advice or ideas.
