As stated Chiropractors have their limitations. Think of them this way, if you take your tractor in that isn't running properly, a mechanic can do a tune up which will help but if the engine is beyond that simple repair he cant just fix it with a tune up. MOST chiropractors work with what you have. That is all they can do. I go frequently as I can hardly function much if I don't. Muscle work and chiropractic can help. A person can end up getting neck problems because of tight muscles in the low back. Does your massage therapist work on the psoas muscles or piriformis muscles? The psoas is a hip flexor muscle attached to the front part of the hip and the front part of the spine. It goes in to motion when you lift your leg to walk forward. When they get tight they can twist your hips which strains other muscles. The piriformis muscle attaches to the sacrum (tailbone) and goes to the outer side part of your hip. I have heard stories of people going in for surgery for leg pain because the sciatic nerve is getting pinched by the piriformis muslce, while massage in certain cases can alleviate the pain. Light stretches may help you as well. There are some chiropractors who do manual side posture for the low back, some do drop table and some use the activator. One technique might work better than others for you. Understanding what chiropractic is and its limitations are most important. If you are sick and go in to the doctor once and it didn't help, once may not be enough. In most cases a person is dealing with years of strained muscles and wear and tear from that on your spine. As for the website link, I always look if they are trying to sell me something. What about all the people that chiropractic has helped? What about all the medical doctors visits people have and end up worse. I would bet that would out number chiropractic ones. There might have been underlying problems that weren't mentioned in the stories on there. The spine is held in place by muscles and the bones and nerves are what controls the muscles, they work together. Massage is very important as well.
