The answer depends on your definition of what good health is. If you define good health as an absence of symptoms then you subscribe to the medical model and the answer is mostly NO but occasionally yes. However, if you feel that being in good health means that your body is working at its peak optimal efficiency, then you will most likely want to see your Chiropractor on a weekly or twice-monthly basis. It is important to remember that many symptoms of disease did not just suddenly appear, but were building up in the body over a period of time. With regular chiropractic treatments many of these symptoms and diseases don't occur.
Most patients come to a chiropractic office for pain from an injury.
When that injury is finished, and the pain gone, the patient is usually not seen again, unless they injure themselves again. Often, this is construed as being a permanent patient. In reality, it is reconstructive care, and sometimes maintenance care. The real truth is that patients return to their chiropractor time after time because chiropractic care works very good for lots of problems. Besides providing chiropractic adjustments and good health habits, chiropractic doctors provide pre-employment, prenatal and athletic physicals.
