How Massage and Chiropractic Work Together to Benefit a Patient

Did you know that there is a multitude of advantages to be gained by blending chiropractic care and therapeutic massage? These techniques work together to ensure quicker healing. And, they are particularly effective after a car accident.

Let’s look at what each of these actually do.

Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care will treat muscle disorders and problems with the nervous system. You can expect physiotherapy, gentle spinal manipulation, and rehabilitation. In some cases, we might also use additional techniques, like electrical stimulation and traction, which gently stretches the spine.

Therapeutic Massage
Therapeutic massage focuses on alleviating tightness and pain. If you have poor posture, or suffer from tight muscles and muscle spasms, this will really help. Massage techniques will work on deep muscles and also the connective tissue around them, providing you with fast relief as well as ongoing health benefits.

Combining Chiropractic Care and Massage
Massage therapy and chiropractic care work in tandem. If you have back and neck pain, massage therapy can increase the success of chiropractic treatments. Together, they will relax your muscles and calm your nervous system. They are both great for helping to relieve pain. We are dedicated to your ongoing health, so the massage therapist and chiropractor will work to address the source of your pain, as well as alleviating the symptoms.
