I've never even seen any support for chiropractic care as a treatment for any GI disorder, or heard from anyone who had success here. I was actually taken to a chiropractor for my IBS when I was a kid, and it was a really bad experience. As an adult I love my chiropractor for neck/back/shoulder problems and such, but I can't say it's ever made a lick of difference for IBS or anything non-spinal.
If you're still looking for ways to really make an impact on your symptoms, I'd try the self-hypnosis IBS program before anything chiropractic. I know that program works, and works extremely well. You'll spend less for the whole 100 day process than you will for one visit to the chiropractor, and the odds are fantastic you'll see a huge, huge improvement in your symptoms. There's a ton of info in the hypnosis section of the website (link is on the left side of your page), you can ask questions in the hypnosis forum here on the boards, and there's a detailed page about the program itself here hypnosis program where you can listen to audio samples.
