After how many sessions will I feel better? I'd like to understand the timeline.

It's different for everyone, but many feel the difference after the very first session - the body softens, the back 'breathes', relaxation sets in. Relief is often felt within the first 3-5 sessions, and a lasting result builds over about 10, when the body locks in a new, freer pattern of movement. It can also happen that after the first sessions the muscles ache a little - that's normal, the body hasn't worked like this in a long time. We don't promise miracles in one go; we're about an honest path that gets better every time.
