This mirrors my experience too. I hadn't gone for over 10 years, then three years ago when my knee was hurting from running - and having gone to PT's and doctors (I work in higher ed, the dean of the school of kinesiology is a colleague) and generous use of Kinesio tape, decided to go to my wife's chiro. He said my knee problems was a symptom and not the cause; rather, my left hip was out of whack. Got that aligned, waited a few days, then ran painlessly ever since.....until I injured my ITB because of a stupid dog! But that's another story.

And no, I haven't been duped onto a "maintenance plan". I've been to the chiro just a few times since.
