Just because you don’t feel pain or notice any symptoms, does not mean there is not an underlying issue needing attention. When the symptoms are no longer debilitating, we will then move you into our maintenance phase of your treatment plan. Again, because each person and ailment are unique, your maintenance plan will be specifically created just for you. This could mean you return monthly, every few months, or on an as needed basis. It is important to know that symptoms show up as the body’s way of communicating to us that we need to slow down or stop doing what we’re doing and address the underlying issue.

It is recommended to see the same provider for continuity of care, unless the patient is not able to see the provider when critically deemed necessary.

With each treatment, your body will continue to heal and relearn how to communicate clearly with itself! ~For most ACUTE CONDITIONS, 1-2 treatments can help resolve most issues or main concerns. Patients may require additional treatments to achieve desired effect. ~For most CHRONIC CONDITIONS, the initial treatment course is 12-15 treatments in addition to maintenance treatments.
