A member asked:

Can you let me know how many times should i go see my chiropractor for treatment?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Never: Unfortunately many people go to a chiropractor and then are told they need to return for many, many visits. This is nothing more than practice building. Also, much if not all of what most chiropractors do, has no evidence. I would encourage you to check out the website: www.Chirobase.Org before ever going back to the chiropractor.
