t’s one of the most common questions we hear at Nomad Chiropractic — and now we have clearer answers thanks to new research summarised by Dr Heidi Haavik. The findings show that consistent chiropractic care creates stronger, longer-lasting changes in the spine and nervous system than occasional visits. This matters for headaches, posture, pregnancy comfort, kids’ development, stress tension, and overall wellbeing. In this blog, we break down what the research actually says, why frequency matters, and how we personalise care plans for Mosman, Cremorne, Neutral Bay and North Shore families. Friendly, evidence-informed, and tailored to your body — that’s the Nomad difference.
