It's quite amazing actually.
From the usual twice-a-month sessions, I haven't been to the chiropractor since I resumed intensive pilates 8 months ago.
Neither have I gone for my weekly massages after I added regular swimming to the fitness menu 3 months ago. There simply isn't a need for all that kneading anymore.
I do need to crack the neck and the bones to get the aches out of the body. The fitness regime so far has either strengthened the muscles or ease the tension. Whatever needs to be cracked, I can do it quite easily on my own.
I shall maintain the exercises. I hope to remain pain-free.
