well, it boils down to the question of what result do you hope to have after your treatment?

me personally - i want to be able to turn my head side to side and walk without a limp. i hate ongoing appts so i used to avoid chiros assuming they just wanted to string me along.

then i went to a guy who was kind of new agey, hippy-ish and told him my concern. his professional recommendation was to allow him to do a head to toe adjustment once each year (fingers and toes included - we're talking really thorough) and then only call him if i felt pain or limited movement. his view was that his colleagues who require frequent ongoing appts, just want more money even if you don't need the adjustment.
i went his route and it was freakin' awesome. earlier this year i did some damage to my back that we are trying to rectify without involving a knife. should be about 3 more weeks and then back to 1 maybe 2 times per year.

if you meet a chiro that only wants to pop your neck or spine then run off to the next client, i'd keep looking though.
