Your Chiropractor should make evidence-based decisions and programs for you to receive the most optimal treatment possible based on your specific diagnosis. After the initial concern is controlled, regular adjustments can become part of a healthy lifestyle but ultimately the decision to continue maintaining your health is up to you. The better your daily exercise and stretching routine is, the less you will require ongoing care. Research as shown that for those who sit for long hours, have physically demanding jobs, or are under chronic stress often, a monthly maintenance plan can reduce pain and reset the nervous system.
