    If your regular truck stop had an On Site Chiropractic clinic, with a normal visit being $35- $45 per visit, would you use it? Why, Why Not?

    That sounds like a pretty good idea.

    I would not. If I have an issue that requires Chiropractic care, I have a Chiropractor at home.

    As far as that goes, I have a Barber at home, a Doctor at home, someone to conduct a DOT Physical at home, a Massage Therapist at home, a TV room and Drivers Lounge in my truck, a Wal-Mart, Target, and several other Department Stores at home, and no use for a Chrome shop....so all that crap is wasted space in a truck stop as far as I'm concerned.

    I wouldn't. Why not? Because I don't need one. And, if I were to develop an issue that a chiropractor "might" be able to help, I would go to my doctor. Same as I wouldn't go to a hypnotist to cure a migraine.

    The young man at Bosselman's Grand Island is good. I have been there twice.

    A chiropractor is much like a physical therapist. If something happens and I require one, I'll go to one. But I'm going to a quality guy, and any one that sets up shop in a freaking truck stop is not quality.

    Any port in the storm. You aren't any good, if you can't drive, ( and they know that, and probably charge accordingly) I've never been to a "crack", although, when my back goes out, 3-4 times a year, it's intense. I don't think I could drive, much less push in a clutch. Might be enough, to get you down the road. Good luck.

    How about a masseuse?

    Some truck stops already have them...and every time I walk by, there is no "customers" on the table or waiting. Another waste of space.

    If I knew the guy or gal had a good reputation for knowing what they are doing after checking into them first than I would consider keeping them in mind. Especially if you stay out for extended periods of time. Beats suffering.
