Patients are often concerned about the idea of continuing visits. Once they feel better, they wonder why they should continue treatments. From what you have read in this section, you probably have begun to see why we believe that continuing visits are important -- the reversing of problems takes time.
That being said, we encourage you apply some of the techniques of stretching and movement that we can tell you about. The more you do, the less you will need frequent adjustments.
In the end, if the concepts of correction, prevention, and maintenance are not understood, then it is not logical to continue with treatments. It is when you understand your health and become an active participant in it, that you can receive the most benefit from treatments.
Lastly, in any profession, there is the opportunity for greed. By educating yourself and taking an active your role in your health care, you can limit the chances for unscrupulous people to take advantage of you. Never be afraid to ask questions about your treatment, and never be afraid to get a second opinion -- it is your health, take an active role.
