Everybody heals differently. Acute (newer) cases usually see results instantly whereas chronic cases can take several weeks or more before the patterns change. Acute therapy usually encompasses a 4-8 week program and chronic therapy 8-12 weeks. However, progress checks and evaluations are key to determine overall healing and success.

It depends whether your care is relatively newer or chronic. Based on a careful analysis, thorough examination and detailed work with imaging (nerve scan, x-rays, MRI) individual programs of corrective care are recommended. As mentioned earlier, acute cases can take 4-8 weeks requiring 2-3 sessions per week and chronic cases can take 8-12 weeks requiring 3-4 sessions per week to achieve the desired outcome.
