How Often Should I Get Spinal Adjustments?

Spinal adjustments are used to improve spinal motion and the body’s physical function. They can help reduce acute and chronic lower back pain. It is done by the chiropractor using their hands or a small instrument to apply a controlled, sudden force to a spinal joint. It has been beneficial to millions of patients across the United States. It can be used in combination with other pain management treatments as well. A common question that patients have is: “How often do I need to get a spinal adjustment?”

It depends on how far into a treatment plan you are. It is common to get multiple adjustments in a week at the beginning of your plan. As you begin to experience relief, you may start to get adjustments just once a week. After you are pain-free, it may drop to getting a spinal manipulation once a month or twice a month. Your exact treatment plan will depend on your condition and the opinion of your chiropractor. Consult with your local chiropractor for your specific spinal adjustment treatment plan.
