Core muscle exercise then start exercise
Typically one hour.
There is no contraindication to exercising anytime after an adjustment. There may be a contraindication to the condition your getting adjusted for. You gotta ask your chiropractor for the answer on this.
Hello,
That would be a good discussion with the doctor who adjusted you; it depends on the initial exam and the findings, the severity of what you present with...

Thank you
You can exercise right away, depending on your injury. Ask your chiropractor if it is ok for you.
Typically exercising the same day as an adjustment is fine, however this advise would be dependent on if you are getting treated for pain or on a wellness program. If pain is the indicator for your treatments then I would suggest discussing exercise programs and frequency with a professional.
