Each Case of Atlas Subluxation is Different

While there is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question “how long will I see results after receiving neck bone adjustments from an Upper Cervical Chiropractor?”, understanding your condition better and the benefits of chiropractic care can help you set your expectations.

It's essential to keep in mind that every case of migraine is unique. While many migraine patients report throbbing head pain, sensitivity to light and sound, and nausea as common symptoms, the underlying causes and triggers can vary from person to person. 

From your initial assessment, your chiropractic doctor got a better look and thoroughly assess your condition. From here, you get a recommendation matching your needs. How your body responds to every adjustment can help your chiropractor identify where you're at and how many more adjustments are necessary. Some patients hold adjustments for long periods and only get to visit once in a while for maintenance.

Your Upper Cervical Chiropractor will also take into consideration the results of your imaging tests to understand your spine's alignment better and pinpoint areas that require attention. Follow-up scans will also be provided to help you see how well your body has improved after each adjustment. 

While there is no particular number of visits set, sometimes your body will respond and heal better and faster and won't require a lot of adjustments, but sometimes, you may need more than initially planned.

Why A Follow-Up Consultation With An Upper Cervical Chiropractic Doctor Is Necessary

Finding relief for your migraines may take time, and the number of adjustment sessions required may vary. However, by working closely with your Upper Cervical Chiropractor and committing to a comprehensive plan, you can significantly improve your chances of finding long-term relief from your migraine symptoms.

Upper Cervical adjustments are necessary to correct these misalignments, relieving migraine symptoms. But some patients make the mistake of not coming back to their succeeding appointments once their symptoms improve.

In addition, misalignments or subluxations in these vertebrae can pressure the nerves, leading to migraines and other physical symptoms, especially when left ignored.

While there is no specific answer about the frequency of your visits, seeking a qualified Upper Cervical Chiropractor can significantly improve your chances of finding long-term relief. Talk to your Upper Cervical doctor to set your expectations better and to get exclusive health and wellness tips that can help bolster your efforts to managing migraines and holding your adjustments.
