I've used many different chiropractors, and they are not all the same. I can honestly recommend Rebecca Pearson in Branson. She had done amazing things with my back over the decades. One of the tools she's used, which others I've gone to didn't, is an activator, a spring loaded "clicker", vs the traditional physical manipulation techniques, where they bend, twist and pop you. Those techniques are always quite painful. I've received many people to Rebecca over the years, and everyone of them has thanked me.

On the other side of that coin, I've been to some that I wished I'd never graced their threshold.

The people who say it’s bad have never lived anywhere else. They moved from Billings or where ever there is no crime because there is no people. Then they moved somewhere with people. KC and STL are more crimey. There are places there that you actively should avoid going to. There is no bad part of Springfield. North side is not bad. It’s worse than the south side

There's a karaoke bar on battlefield called Friends. On Wednesday nights (I think. It's once a week.) Before karaoke starts local musicians will get onstage and sing their own songs and tell the stories behind them. Also, karaoke is also a ton of fun, or you can play pool. I've met so many cool people there while deafening people with my horrific singing lol. Also, the Springfield Nature Center is a great way to get some exercise, enjoy the outdoors, and see some wildlife. It isn't exactly the best place to meet new people, but amazing for those days when you need to unwind and enjoy the outdoors.

Honey, they've done this since the 70s and 80s around here. Every few years they get a bee in their butt crack. Don't be alarmed or let the fear mongers make you afraid.

But, I also got called a transphobe for telling someone to not be afraid of missouri... so take it for what you will. I still say just live your life.

If you move to the northwest side (I'm a current resident here) near Kansas and Division, be prepared to play the "Are those gun shots or fireworks" game. Not really that bad as no one has bugged me or my family but I have absolutely walked out my back door into my fully fenced in yard to swat back there telling me to go back inside. That has also happened walking out the front door to see 12 SPD units searching the abandoned house catty corner to mine. 😂😂 Just mind your own biscuits and life will be gravy my dude.
