One common belief about chiropractors is that you need need to keep going back. However, this is not the case. After your first meeting with your chiropractor, they will make an initial examination and work with you to determine the course of action to take. The treatment plan will vary depending on the condition being treated. ... Most healthcare plans will require a few follow-up visits, but ultimately the decision to continue care is yours. Our chiropractors are happy to work with you to make the best choice for your health. Our goal is to make you feel your best and improve your quality of life.
