Maintain the gain. After six months of wearing braces on protruding teeth, the teeth could be straight and we could throw the braces away. But our common sense tells us that if we dispose of the braces too soon, the teeth will have a tendency to gradually go back where they were before the braces were put on.

The same holds true for spinal corrections. The symptoms may be totally gone but to prevent the return of symptoms and to maintain the gain, weekly or twice-a-month spinal adjustments are often essential.
