“How often should you see a chiropractor for neck pain?”

Depends on what the problem really is. There is such a thing as too much and too little treatment. A plan tailored to you is the way to go.

It all depends on your Neck problem,… is it muscular, skeletal, or neurological??? Do you have Seated/Standing X-rays? If so you can schedule a Televist with me by fining me on IG @DrRominaG

To address neck pain there needs to be a better understanding of your specific case. A new patient process includes a patient intake, consultation, and physical examination to further understand the potential root cause of this type of condition or injury. With pain, x-rays and MRIs may be warranted to assess the extent of the condition or injury. This will help understand the length of time for care. There are certain exams during the new patient process that are performed to understand the severity. Some positive exams may warrant you to be referred to the emergency room, urgent care, neurologist, MD, DO, or orthopedist. If no referral is needed, diagnostic imaging may be warranted as further examination (as stated above). If those above paths are not needed then addressing the condition with chiropractic care may be palliative in the alleviation of these imbalances creating dysfunction in the body, such as disc bulges. There are various techniques in chiropractic. Throughout an active phase of care, it will be determined if the patient is responding favorably to certain techniques. *If favorable, most pain cases range from 2-3x/wk for 2-4 wks to begin. Then a re-exam will be performed to give a better understanding of how many visits are needed from there. In total, it may take 10-18 visits to see a substantial change or potential full resolution.*

It all depends on why and how long you have had neck pain. How old you are, history of injury or accidents, arthritis, possible diseases. Seeing a Chiropractor can address most of these issues

Good morning If you are going to see a chiropractor it is hard to say how many visits you would need as each patient has a different issue. I would recommend get an evaluation and at that time the doctor should be able to give you a plan of care that would include the necessary recommendations.
