How many times a week should you see a chiropractor after an accident?

Most people start with two to three visits a week after a car accident, then taper down as they improve. The frequency depends on how badly you were hurt, not on a fixed schedule. Early on, tissue is inflamed and joints are guarded, so more frequent visits help calm things down and restore motion before bad movement patterns set in. As pain drops and range of motion returns, visits usually fall to once a week, then to as needed. At Muskingum County Accident & Injury Center in Zanesville, Dr. Byus sets your visit frequency after evaluating you, reviews it as you progress, and tells you plainly when you are ready to back off.
