How often you should come in depends on how you’re feeling and what you’re trying to accomplish. For general wellness and maintenance, once a month is a great goal. If you’re dealing with ongoing tightness, pain, or a specific problem, your therapist may recommend coming in every 2–3 weeks at first.

A simple guide:

  • Pain level 0–3: About once a month
  • Pain level 3–6: About every 3 weeks
  • Pain level 6–8: About every 2 weeks

As you start feeling better, you can usually space your appointments farther apart. Your therapist can help recommend a schedule based on how your body responds.
