In doing this the patient should see immediate results showing that the muscle is activated.

After completing the muscle work and confirming that your body is in balance through the re-examination, you will transition to our wellness care/maintenance program.

Patients on our wellness care program typically schedule regular AMIT appointments to correct instabilities that can arise. A good schedule is every 4-8 weeks. These appointments are essential for maintaining optimal muscle health and preventing future injuries, ensuring that you continue to enjoy a pain-free, active lifestyle.
