Chiropractic and Massage – The Perfect Pair
Are you a patient of chiropractic care? If so, you’ve seen and felt the benefits of the care you’ve received. Have you experienced massage therapy? If so, you have felt the results of having tight muscles worked on and the relaxation that comes from a great massage. Are you a patient of BOTH chiropractic care AND massage therapy? Well then, my friend, you have hit the jackpot in experiencing a deeply impactful, complete health and wellness experience. If you’ve never made the connection between the perfect pair that is chiropractic and massage, please allow us to explain.
Massage Therapy
The goal of massage therapy is to reduce pain, relax your muscles, and improve your circulation. Your circulatory system is critical for your body to function properly. It does important things like carrying nutrients and oxygen to your cells. Your circulatory system helps transport carbon dioxide to the lungs to be expelled. It can help remove harmful chemical substances from the body, protecting the body against disease and infection. A poorly functioning circulatory system can mean some major health issues for the body. Massage therapy can also help your body respond more quickly to chiropractic adjustments.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care ensures your body is properly aligned and functioning at its best. When segments of the spine are misaligned, it can cause pain, and it can also create other health issues. This happens when the nerves that control your bodily functions are interfered with by misaligned vertebrae. Are you curious about what bodily functions may be affected? You can check out our Effects of Spinal Misalignments chart in our reception area. It’s HUGE and you can’t miss it!
Combining the Two
Combining chiropractic care and massage therapy can assist your body in its natural ability to heal itself and reduce pain more easily. You can increase your flexibility and mobility. You can boost your circulation, thus helping your body heal and maintain proper health. This duo can help reduce stress and anxiety and therefore lead to an improvement in your overall wellness and a better quality of life.
