Massage Therapy
Massage Therapy compliments the chiropractic care you receive in our office.
Muscles react to stress by shortening and tightening up. This can lead to loss of flexibility in joints, misalignments, trigger points, decreased circulation, poor posture and poor health.
Therapeutic massage received regularly helps work out chronic muscular tension. Massage melts away tension, and if received regularly, keeps tension from building back up again. Not only will you feel better but you will be healthier from the inside out.
Massage Supports Chiropractic
You can benefit by adding massage therapy to your chiropractic care program.
- Recovery is normally faster and more complete when you address multiple components of your pain.
- Chiropractic treatment often proceeds more easily with less comfort when sot tissue has been relaxed with massage.
- You may be less tense and more ready to receive a chiropractic adjustment after a massage.
- Adjustments frequently last longer when muscle tension is released that might otherwise pull your joints out of alignment again.
Chiropractic Supports Massage
If you are seeking massage for general health or pain but find your pain persists or recurs, chiropractic could help in these ways.
- If your problem has a “joint component” an adjustment may give immediate relief.
- You will find that surrounding soft tissue heals quickly once it is no longer subjected to the stress of misaligned joints.
- Improved joint movement can relax deep layers of muscle that is difficult to reach with massage.
- With improved joint mobility exercise and stretching program will be more efficient and effective.
