Only you can tell: Each chiro works differently. Whether your new chiro can help you or not, only you can tell. Without knowing what he is doing to you for what problem, it's impossible to tell if you should continue.

Not likely: Network spinal analysis (nsa) is a marketing tool. Chiros function under an ancient, disproven notion of disease causation by spinal misalignment termed "subluxation" - something never demonstrated to exist. "treatment" is by forceful thrusts. Nsa postulates an improvement in function by gentle touch leading nerves to "retrain" for health. No evidence exists for this.

No: The only thing it'll help is the chiropractor's cash flow. "network spinal analysis" is as bogus as snake oil, magnets and "quantum healing." you might as well flush your money down the toilet for all the value you're getting for it. A chiropractor who believes in it is duping himself; a chiropractor who doesn't is duping you.
