What to Expect After Your Appointment

Many patients experience significant symptom relief within a few weeks of starting their personalized treatment program. However, individual outcomes vary, and your active participation is crucial for success.  We provide ongoing care techniques and take-home exercises to support your healing journey. These tools empower you to strengthen your body at your own pace. 

While most patients require minimal in-office follow-ups, we may recommend additional visits for those involved in sports, seeking proactive care, or dealing with more severe injuries. These follow-ups help ensure your healing process is progressing smoothly.
