What is Massage Therapy?
Massage Therapy is manipulating the body’s soft tissues to relieve stress, ease muscle tension, encourage relaxation, and improve overall well-being.
Therapeutic massage is performed using various strokes, pressures, and techniques that include holding, moving and apply pressure to the muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia.
How does Massage Therapy compliment chiropractic adjustments?
- Reduces the strain on muscles that can pull the spine out of alignment
- Can help with holding an adjustment longer, and/or to help relax the muscles to make an
adjustment easier - Reduces the constriction of nerves due to muscle tension
- Helps prevent future pain and injuries
- Decreases muscle strain and spasm, tension and stress
- Increases circulation to allow the healing blood supply back into the problem areas while
improving muscle tone and detoxification
