Why chiropractic care and massage therapy will benefit you?

 

While massage therapy focuses on the soft tissues, chiropractic care centers on the nervous system and musculoskeletal dysfunctions related to hard tissue like the Spine, bones, and joints. These hard tissues are surrounded by muscles , tendons, and ligaments, tight muscles pull joints out of alignments. Warming, loosening, and relaxing the soft tissues before a chiropractic adjustment helps the bone structures adjust more easily, as tight muscles can sometimes make it difficult to manipulate hard tissue. Chiropractors perform more extensive physical examinations, make medical diagnoses, perform x-rays, order MRI's, and other test. They can also help massage therapist identify and treat specific musculoskeletal dysfunctions. Receiving chiropractic care either before or after therapeutic massage increase the effectiveness of both treatments, improving range of motion, promoting faster healing, extending the length of both treatment benefits, and improving overall function.
