Angry hmm chiropractic hmm

Hi guys.
I got this hunched/slouched posture going on ever since i spent so much time in front of computers and books during university.

It's called something like "turtle neck syndrom".
like my neck bone below my traps r kinda stickin out.
I've been doing some rows hopeing it can b fixed and it's gotten a lot better but yeah it's still there.

Anyone ever had similar problems b4?
I'm just real frustrated cuz different chiropracters suggests me different things, like some suggests surgery but others told me i can reverse it with proper exercises.

Sorry for the rant >.<

i probably have no information that those links didn't cover. i'd like to add that i think i have the opposite problem: all of my vertabrae are visible except for the ones in my upper back area. its like a minor indent inbetween my shoulder blades.

anyway, i got a friend who complains about a rounded upper back. he tends to neglect the traps and basically the entire back in general. you know the type.
