How Often Should Your Treatments Occur?

At first, four to six treatments on a weekly basis is recommended.  Although some symptoms may alleviate with the very first treatment, older, more persistent, or chronic conditions often need a series of treatments to clear away levels of imbalance and reach the root cause of the illness.  With physical and/or emotional trauma, several treatments may be required to allow the person to heal more thoroughly.  "Band Aide" fixes of symptoms, by definition, do not address the depth of an illness or injury, therefore, a symptom may reassert itself.

Allergies
Asthma
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS)
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) / Depression
Headaches
High Blood Pressure
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
The Common Cold
Weight Reduction
