How Many Treatments Will I Need?
The number of treatments depends on a few factors:
Your Symptom Stage (Relief → Correction / Root Cause → Maintenance)
Relief: calming pain, tension, or nerve irritation
Correction / Root cause: correcting movement, strength, or structural issues
Maintenance: preventing flare-ups and supporting long-term function
Acute conditions:
If you’re dealing with recent injuries or sudden issues within the last few months, you may notice significant improvement after just a few sessions. Typically acute conditions require only 1–5 treatments compared to long-term issues.
Chronic conditions:
Chronic issues or long-term systemic conditions usually require more sessions. A typical plan involves 2 visits per week for the first 2–3 weeks, with treatments spreading out as you progress. Chronic issues often need more total sessions and may benefit from follow-up or maintenance care.
Long Standing Issues:
May require beyond just a few initial visits: May require initial evaluation sessions + longer course of care. % improvement is assessed for long standing issues to determine progression between sets of visits.
Maintenance:
Many patients choose occasional visits to keep pain from returning and to support active lifestyles.
We’ll regularly reassess your progress and adjust your treatment plan as you improve.
What makes each case unique?
Length of Your Issue
Problems that have been around longer often take more time to unwind. Chronic tension, nerve irritation, or long-term compensation patterns usually need more sessions than newer issues.
Condition being treated
Different issues heal at different speeds (nerve, muscle, joint, inflammation, etc.)
Acute or Chronic
Acute issues often improve faster, especially if treated early. Chronic conditions may need more consistent sessions at first before treatments can be spaced out.
How Your Body Responds
Everyone heals differently and people also heal at different speeds. Your biology, movement patterns, and day-to-day habits affect how quickly you see results.
Your Treatment Goals
Some patients come for pain relief. Others want better mobility, long-term correction, or performance support. Your goals help determine the pace and duration of care.
Health, Sleep, and Stress Levels
Your body heals best when you’re resting well and managing stress. These factors influence inflammation, circulation, and overall recovery.
Medications
Some medications can slow healing or change how your body responds. Others may become easier to reduce over time as symptoms improve, always with your doctor’s guidance.
