Massage Therapy
Regular massage can release chronically contracted muscles and fascia, improving the balance among muscle groups and promoting healthful circulation. Your body will be more resilient in the face of daily stresses, less prone to injury and subluxation.
Our massage therapists use sustained pressure and stretching techniques, to release trigger points, alleviate painful sprains & strains, and disrupt myofascial adhesions.
In general, massage increases circulation and stimulates healthy separation & realignment of injured fibers. This reduces painful swelling & inflammation, and promotes healing by removing waste products and bringing nutrients to your tissues. Like a sponge, absorbing water, both fascia and muscles begin to soften and lengthen.
Massage Supports Chiropractic
You can benefit in a number of ways 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 discomfort, when the soft tissue has been relaxed with massage.
You may be less anxious and more ready to receive a chiropractic adjustment after a relaxing 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 therapy for pain but find that your pain persists, recurs or even worsens after your massage, chiropractic could help in many ways:
If your pain involves a stuck joint, chiropractic adjustment typically give immediate relief as your joint is restored to proper alignment and mobility.
You will find that the surrounding soft tissue heals quickly once it is no longer subjected to the stress of misaligned joints.
The joint movement in chiropractic adjustments can sometimes relax deep layers of soft tissue that can be difficult to reach with massage.
Your chiropractor can use x-rays and manual diagnostic techniques to evaluate other possible causes for your pain and can make appropriate referrals if necessary.
