Chronic disease
Even for chronic and stubborn conditions, most patients experience noticeable relief within six treatments. However, everyone progresses at their own pace. Approximately one-third of patients feel immediate relief after the first treatment, while the likelihood of improvement increases to 50% after the second session and continues to rise with subsequent treatments. This is why committing to at least six sessions is essential to ensure meaningful progress.
Initially, treatments are scheduled twice a week to achieve a significant relief. Once improvement is evident, the frequency is gradually reduced to maintain results.
Acute disease
For acute conditions like muscle sprains or strains from sports injuries, it typically takes 4 to 6 treatments to resolve the issue. When it comes to seasonal colds or the flu, we offer Chinese herbal remedies that can immediately reduce symptoms and cut the duration in half. These natural approaches empower the body to heal itself more efficiently and effectively.
Your improvement is measured using 3 criteria:
1. Less intensity of pain and dysfunction.
2. Less frequency of pain and dysfunction.
3. Less duration of pain and dysfunction.
For example, if you have low back pain, then the amount of pain lessens over time, the incidences are less frequently noticed, and the length of time for recovery is shorter. Or, if you have irritable bowel disease, then the intensity of cramping is less, the frequency of bowel movement is less, and the period of abdominal discomfort is shorter.
Objective
The goal is to reverse pain, inflammation, and dysfunction, ultimately enhancing your quality of life. In other words, your recovery is guided through a reasonable number of treatments.
During the initial visits, your body is set on the right path toward improvement by supporting its natural healing abilities. Typically, visiting twice a week for 3 to 5 weeks is sufficient to establish noticeable progress.
Subsequent treatments help stabilize these improvements and promote further recovery. Over time, your organs, glands, and nerves will achieve a more balanced and homeostatic state, leading to long-term wellness.
