Agree. Surgeons don't have real solutions for back/neck problems, but they'll charge tens of thousands to cut your body open and do to it whatever they have been trained to do. They will also have you sign a legal waiver stating you may become paralyzed or die from the operation.
Chiropractors are laughed at by "normal" doctors and many people consider them only good for minor aches. But a really good chiropractor doctor can usually help as much as surgery would, if combined with a personalized diet, inversion, proper sleep position, non-invasive therapies, and stretching programs.
For anons with back & neck problems, this attached book was more helpful to me than dozens of visits to many doctors. If it's helpful to you, please purchase it on the author's website.
