I'd like to suggest visiting at least one 'certified rolfer' to have a look at ya. They can be super heroes for the right conditions.
I have taken people around chiros, acupuncturists, and many other therapists. A recent experience had a close friend find some relief with a particular chiropractor - but we found the symptoms returned, and more treatments were suggested, with a 'long term goal of complete relief in 9 months or so' - then we tried orthopedic people and surgeons,
then found way to a doc that was a chiropractor, but had several add on things, one being 'spinal decompression therapy' - the best thing about that guy / place is that he knew right away a couple of issues by looking at ya, pointed out things others missed by looking at an x-ray, and had a very specific 'we can fix 99% of this pain and problem with these things we do here in X amount of weeks' -
I would also seek a well experienced acupuncturist.
Others have pointed out great things to explore like emotional and body connected issues that are under-diagnosed in my experience as well.
For stubborn muscle like issues I have always been grateful of the additional information that a great acupuncture person and rolfing therapy person can provide.
I have found some doctors to be great, but mostly surgeons that like to cut when you have good insurance and chiropractors that like to have you on a weekly plan that lasts for months, they often have me looking for other opinions for true relief.
For some the right massages combined with doing the right exercises is all that's needed.
Be wary of any chiro people that say they know rolfing and more - sure they might 'know it', but only people certified with the Ida Rolf institute really know it and do it so well they can start fixing you session one after looking at your posture, imho, ymmv.
If you are in or visiting Nashville I can suggest some specific people to see that I have found to trust.
I am not a doctor / lawyer, not medical advice, verify with doctors, have not seen you, yada yada. Hoping you find lasting relief though!
