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.

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.


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.
