This is one of the most common and understandable questions we hear, especially from people who’ve been in pain for a while, seen multiple practitioners, and are just… ready to be done with it.
And the honest answer is:
It’s not because we don’t want to fix you in one session.
It’s because real healing doesn’t happen that way—and anyone promising otherwise is either oversimplifying or missing something important.
Your body didn’t get here overnight
Most of the people who walk through our doors haven’t had one single injury or one moment that “broke” their body. Their pain is the result of years of compensations stacking on top of each other—for months (or years).
Over time, your body adapts to each new stress. That’s what it’s designed to do. But eventually, it runs out of good ways to adapt—and that’s when symptoms show up. Back pain. Sciatica. Migraines etc.
So when you come to us, what we’re really dealing with isn’t just the latest flare-up—it’s a whole history of compensation. A pattern that’s been building for a long time.
One session is like brushing your teeth once and expecting perfect dental health
It’s not that nothing will happen in your first session—you may very well feel relief (many people do). But that’s just the beginning.
Correcting long-standing structural issues and unwinding patterns of compensation is a process—because your body needs time to re-learn how to function without those patterns.
It’s like peeling back the layers of an onion. Each layer reveals the next. As we correct what your body can’t fix on its own, it begins to do the rest—but that takes more than one visit.
What one session can do
Your first treatment (which happens during your second visit after we’ve properly assessed you) isn’t just about results—it’s about understanding your body.
• You’ll start to feel what proper alignment feels like.
• You’ll begin to see AND feel the changes happening in real-time.
• You’ll understand how ABC works and how your body responds to it.
Our goal isn’t quick fixes. It’s long-term results
Some people come in hoping for a “click” that will change everything. And while there are certainly “wow” moments in care, true correction is cumulative. Each adjustment builds on the last, helping your body hold itself better, for longer, until eventually—it just stays that way.
