What Is Massage Therapy?

Massage therapy is a hands-on therapeutic technique that manipulates the body's soft tissue to promote relaxation, relieve muscle tension, and enhance overall well-being. It is typically performed by a licensed massage therapist, who uses various techniques and strokes to address the concerns or goals of the individual receiving the massage.

Therapeutic massage involves the manipulation of soft tissues in your body using varying degrees of pressure. Our trained therapists target muscles, tendons, ligaments, and connective tissues, enhancing your health and wellness.

How Does Massage Therapy Complement Chiropractic Care?

At our practice, we believe in the synergistic benefits of combining massage with chiropractic treatment. Massage therapy can relax muscles, making your body malleable to chiropractic adjustments. Additionally, it enhances circulation, promotes quicker healing, and can reduce inflammation.

How Often Should I Have a Massage?

The frequency of massage sessions depends on several factors, including your specific needs, goals, and recommendations of your massage therapist. The frequency of massage sessions varies based on individual health needs and goals. Our chiropractor will work with you to determine the ideal frequency to optimize your health and wellness.

Can Massage Therapy Help with Back Pain?

Massage therapy can help relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and increase flexibility, all contributing to back pain relief. Our comprehensive treatment plan may be necessary for chronic or severe back pain. Consult a qualified massage therapist or healthcare provider to develop an appropriate treatment approach tailored to you.

Is Massage Therapy Safe for Everyone?

While therapeutic massage is generally safe, there may be certain conditions where caution is necessary. Our chiropractor will thoroughly evaluate massage recommendations before recommending them as part of your treatment plan. Consult your healthcare provider before receiving massage therapy, especially if you have health concerns or are uncertain about its suitability. We can guide you based on your circumstances and help determine if massage therapy is safe and beneficial.
