I go to the chiropractor a few times a week due to my scoliosis , which of course is a pain to have to make it there some manyt times a week. Anyhow I get adjusted. And I also do the matrix, which if your not familar with this its suctioning massage devices with a high current.So I got them on my neck also on friday so I sat through my twenty minute program and she took off the devices. It left hickeys on my neck the maching sucked so hard! I was so upset. I've been wearing hoodies to keep my neck covered. I'm one of those people that think hickeys look so trashy. talk about embarrassing. But at least the treatment was good lol

LOL. that is funny. I hate to have any kind of hickey also especially if it shows. when i was younger, it didn't really bother me as bad if it could be covered up but not any more. i think it looks trashy too but at least the treatment was good for you. That is good to hear.

Oh no! That would be embarrassing to me too. It's not like you could stop and explain to everyone who noticed if they saw them. When I was ten, I had a thing for grape juice in glass bottles. I don't know why, but one time I kind of let my lips get sucked into the bottle when I was drinking the remaining juice. When I was done, my mom looked at me and noticed it looked like I had a slight hickey surrounding my lips because of what I had done (the suction). We were on vacation, so she had my dad pull over, and she bought some soap at a gas station. She scrubbed my mouth so hard that it looked like I had a full blown hickey surrounding my mouth! Only it was a bruise from her scrubbing! I got a lot of strange looks for the remainder of my vacation.

You are so fair that I can see all your hickeys would be embarrassing. hahahaha.
I think I would be wearing a hoody also.
I hope you are feeling better and hope they get their machine fixed.

Yes, at first glance they sure did look like hickies. But as large as they were I could tell that they were not. Glad the matrix treatments work to help ease the back pain that you have. Hopefully your next treatment won't give you big suction marks like you got this time.
