What Are the Differences Between Chiropractic Care and Massage Therapy
While Chiropractic Care and Massage Therapy work wonderfully together, they are very distinct in their treatment.
A massage session will usually last between 30-60 minutes. A trained Massage Therapist will use a variety of techniques like gentle kneading and stretching to relieve tender and tight tissue. Massage therapist do not manipulate joints like Chiropractors do, rather they relieve pain through deep tissue massage.
A Chiropractic Care session usually lasts about 20 minutes. A Chiropractor will make an adjustment that corrects a vertebral subluxation. This is a term used to describe when a joint is out of alignment, has lost a degree of movement or has an altered neurological function. This treatment involves the application of gentle pressure at the area of subluxation and the joint alignment being restored. Often times this eliminates a significant amount of pain almost immediately.
Here are some of the many benefits of Chiropractic Care and Massage Therapy...
- Reduces Pain
- Reduces Swelling
- Reduces Muscle Spasms
- Increases Healing
- Reduces Headaches
- Strengthens the Immune System
- Improves Posture
Chiropractic Care and Massage Therapy Working Together
Chiropractic Care and Massage Therapy work together to help align and re-balance your body. The best way to incorporate Therapeutic Massage is to schedule a one-hour Therapeutic Massage session immediately prior to your Chiropractic Care session. This will insure that your muscles are loose, and your joints will move freely.
