In the alternative view many of us find that staying away from body workers that use scanning machines is primary in finding expert practicioners in that type of help.
Remember reading and deciding what to think about conflicting opinions in such matters that scare us should always be comparitivly investigated and as much as possible understood before acting on any issue of concern , prudent fear not withstanding. ( many think of chiro as ridiculous since they havent heard or had any positive results)
Your symptoms lend themselves to many avenues of therapy but just trying one thing after another can be seriously time consuming and uneventfull, as youve found out. Body work is a really good, easy, powefull place to start to get evidence as JAB mentioned also. Our systems themselves are supreme in being able to handle serious situations as long as we arent continuing to ignore negative behaviors or contributing factors which need ending. There are so many new approaches available to end suffering and find healing especially here on CZ, that keeping on with a firm attitude will help you find what you need.
