I'm happy someone of your age is concerned with the health of the spine there are 3 phases of chiropractic care:

1 Relieving the acute problem.
2 Rectifying the imbalance.
3 Keeping your spine in as good a shape as you can throughout your life. That's called maintenance care.

The amount of time it takes is really your whole life because things happen on many days that put you out of balance. Of course, you can help keep your spine aligned with good posture, appropriate exercise, and healthy diet and lifestyle habits.
We work to improve function. Each adjustment made is relevant to that moment in your life. Your spine is a reflection of your lifestyle. Theoretically you abuse it every day so depending on what you’ve done, what you continue ie to do, and what your goals are determines what you need. A conversation and evaluation tell us much more.

For younger people, this can be achieved in as few as one visit. Older patients have many years of compensation patterns to correct before proper alignment is achieved. Every person is different and no 2 people have the same history of trauma or injury.
