Are the benefits lasting?

Studies report that the benefits of treatment are sustained.

The research...

Nelson reported that at 1 year follow up to 94% of patients with good or excellent results from their treatment reported maintaining their improvement. Overall 70% of patients who completed the treatment obtained substantial relief from their symptoms for at least one year versus 29% of the control group (assessed as being suitable for treatment but who declined treatment).
