Title: chiropractic activator
Post by: broken76 on August 10, 2016, 03:28:45 PM
Hi all. So I go to the chiropractor. He has the spring loaded clicker thing. It sends a pop into the tissue or bone area where needed. Was thinking it would be good for trying to break up plaque buildup. It targets a small area and is adjustable for intensity. Any one know what I'm talking about or have tried this. Not sure if might make it worse. I have a slight condition. Slight bend and 2-3 bumps. Take VitE, massage, stretching, some sex but scared to bend it back as its more prone now. Any advice

I personally would recommend you do NOT massage your penis at all or use that device. I know what you're talking about. Stretching is good, but pressing into the plaque or damaged areas is not, from what I understand. But, do attempt whatever you like!

Also, vitamin E is a bare minimum for supplements and has fallen out of favor. It's a treatment from our parents generation. It does thin out the blood which is good, but there are other options as well.

I think you have no idea what chiropractor is.
Proposing you to make a google search and learn the subject before doing something

You may be referring to deep tissue therapy that can be done by a chiropractors office however I think you may be hard pressed to fine an office willing to use this type of therapy on your penis.

He is referring to a metal device which has a small hole with a pin-like cylinder coming out of it. When you press it into a muscle, after a certain point of pressure it "pops" and goes into the hole. The idea is that somehow this sudden release in pressure allows the muscles to relax. It never worked for my back, but I had to get surgery anyway at age 17 on a ruptured disk.

I can't imagine how it would help Peyronie's, but I am quite sure it would damage your penis as you press it in. I am almost 100% sure it would make my penis much worse and cause scarring. I also am unaware of any evidence supporting it's use for muscles.

In other words, stay away!!!
