Treatment is very much a partnership between you and your Chiropractor
Before your treatment starts, your chiropractor will explain to you clearly:
- The results of the examination
- The proposed treatment plan
- the benefits and any significant risksassociated with your condition and proposed treatment plan.
The number and frequency of treatments will depend on a number of factors, including:
- Age
- Extent of Injury
- Duration of Injury
- General fitness
- Stress(physical and emotional)
- Posture/Lifestyle
Once your health improves, you can choose to schedule regular check-up visits to ensure your optimum health, wellbeing and mobility is maintained .
