*The Mean (SD) is presented for each variable in the model for each spinal manipulation dose level (0, 6, 12, and 18 manipulation visits) and the total sample.
They received 0, 1, 2, or 3 SMT sessions per week (0, 6, 12, or 18 total SMT visits) with control visits, consisting of light massage, on non-manipulation visits.

There have been no trials of optimal chiropractic care in terms of number of office visits for spinal manipulation and other therapeutic modalities.
Treatment was included as a dose variable representing the linear effect of the number of visits for spinal manipulation (0, 6, 12, or 18).
