Q Should I come only when the pain is bad, or attend regularly?
A Early on we shorten the interval to two or three visits a week to settle the pain first. Once stable, we widen the interval and raise the share of herbal medicine and lifestyle management. Coming only during flares tends to settle each episode while the gaps between them keep narrowing.
Detailed Answer
Frequent early visits are for the phase of releasing the stiffened area. Once the response builds, many people maintain it with a visit every two weeks. Lunch breaks and after-work hours are commonly used.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
At the first visit we set a realistic plan by looking at the pattern of pain alongside your circumstances. A schedule you can sustain gives better results than an ambitious one.
