How many sessions will you need?

There are many factors which affect how many sessions you may need:

• How old you are. As we get older our bodies do not heal as quickly.
• How long you have had the problem. If you have just started to suffer from the problem it will usually heal quicker than if you have had it for 20 years.
• What the problem is. If a nerve has been damaged this will take longer than a straight forward backache.
• How fit you are. Generally the fitter you are your body tends to heal quicker.
• If you are stressed then this can slow down the healing process and impede your recovery.
• If you have a good diet then your body already has the optimum nutrition to assist the healing process.
• If you are involved in sporting activities it is beneficial to abstain until the healing process is complete.

Most patients find that between 2 & 10 treatments will help their problem. After your first treatment there is usually a week until the next one, and then a longer span of 2 weeks and gradually the time span is extended.

After you feel better we recommend that you have regular check ups to keep your skeletal system in a good alignment. These can vary between 1 to 6 monthly intervals depending on your job and lifestyle.
