A member asked:
Can chiropractors signif. increase height permanently by increasing intervertebral disk height? could that make a 38 yo 3 inches permanently taller?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Gravity affects everyone the same way. If your height is X and you have a transient stretch by hanging upside down, getting manipulated or whatever, it all goes away after you stand upright for a while. Anyone that tells you different is interested in emptying your wallet.
