And why would I keep coming if I already feel better?
It’s a great question — and one we get all the time.
Because once the pain is gone and life feels normal again, it’s natural to think:
“I’m good now… so why would I keep going back?”
Let’s break it down.
Corrective Care: The Fix
This is the stage of care where most people begin.
You’re in pain. Something doesn’t feel right. Your posture’s off, or your body isn’t working the way it should. You want answers — and results.
Corrective care is about identifying and fixing the root cause of your symptoms.
It’s where we unwind years (sometimes decades) of compensation, poor posture, and misalignment that your body has been stacking up over time.
You might start feeling better quickly — often within the first few sessions.
But that doesn’t mean everything’s corrected.
Here’s why:
Pain is usually the last thing to show up, and the first thing to go away.
But the structural issues causing the pain are still there — unless we fully correct them.
Think of it like straightening teeth with braces:
Just because they start to look better after a few weeks doesn’t mean the job’s done. The structure needs time to shift, stabilise, and hold.
Corrective care is that process.
So what happens after the correction is done?
That’s where maintenance care comes in — and it’s entirely your choice.
Maintenance care is like a regular service for your body.
Not because you’re broken, but because you want to stay well.
You might choose it because:
• You want to keep your posture strong and upright
• You sit for long hours and know your body needs support
• You want to stay on top of your health and keep your body functioning at its best — not just pain-free, but moving well, feeling strong, and staying ahead of future issues.
• You move better, feel lighter, and sleep deeper after treatment
• You’ve realised prevention is easier than correction
This isn’t about “once you start, you can never stop.”
It’s about choosing to keep your body running at its best — just like you’d service your car, brush your teeth, or train at the gym.
The Real Difference
• Corrective Care is about resolving a problem.
• Maintenance Care is about preventing it from coming back.
One is reactive. The other is proactive.
And both are valid — depending on what you want for your body.
So… Do You Have To Keep Going?
No.
Once your body is stable and the correction is done, it’s entirely up to you.
But many people choose to check in periodically — not because they’re in pain, but because they’ve experienced what their body feels like when it’s functioning properly. And they don’t want to lose that.
They’ve seen what it’s like to survive…
And what it feels like to thrive.
And when you feel that difference, it’s hard to go back.
