How Often Should You See a Chiropractor

If you’ve ever wondered, 'How often should I see a chiropractor?'—you’re not alone! It’s a question I get all the time here at FeelGood Chiropractic in Hamilton East, and the answer depends on you—your lifestyle, health goals, and what your body needs.
First Things First: Why See a Chiropractor?
Chiropractic care is all about helping your body move and feel better—naturally. Whether you’re dealing with pain (like headaches, back aches or stiffness) or simply want to keep your body in balance, gentle chiropractic adjustments can support your nervous system and overall wellbeing.
So, How Often Should You Come In?
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer, but here’s a helpful guide based on your situation:
If You’re In Pain or Recovering from an Injury: You might need to come in more frequently at first—often 1 to 2 times a week. This helps get your body back on track and gives your nervous system the support it needs to heal.
If You’re Feeling Good and Want to Stay That Way: Once the pain eases and movement improves, I often recommend fortnightly or monthly check-ins to help prevent issues from coming back. Think of it like a regular tune-up for your spine!
If You’re Managing Stress or a Busy Lifestyle: Even if you’re not in pain, regular care can help your body adapt to life’s daily stresses—especially if you sit at a desk all day, drive a lot, or carry little ones around. In these cases, once every 3–4 weeks may feel just right.
Your Body, Your Choice
I always tailor your care plan based on:
- Your health goals
- What we find in your initial assessment
- How your body responds to care
And the best part? You’re always in control. I’m here to guide, support, and empower you, not lock you into endless appointments.
