Can a chiropractor fix chronic lumbago?

Yes: If they understand proper rehabilitation and realize that manipulation will be of limited benefit.

Probably not: Fix is the key word here, they may be able to help you manage the pain but fixing the underlying problem is very unlikely. Manipulation is of limited benefit and modalities only procpvide transient benefit.
