The Benefits of Massage Therapy

  • Massage reverses the effects of negative stress by bringing about the relaxation response, which includes reducing blood pressure, heart rate, respiration rate, and the level of stress hormones (such as adrenaline and cortisol) in the body.
  • Massage strengthens your immune system.
  • Massage improves sleep patterns. Sleep deprivation is a major problem and the cause of many accidents.
  • Massage benefits blood and lymph circulation. Good circulation is vital to good health.
  • Massage promotes deeper and easier breathing. Shallow breathing means your body is not receiving the optimal amount of oxygen, which causes your health to deteriorate.
  • Massage reduces anxiety and mental stress, creates a calmer mind, increases feelings of well-being, and relaxes you. All these massage benefits increase your capacity for clear thinking.
  • Massage speeds recovery from exercise by helping remove waste products from muscles.

How can Massage Therapy compliment your chiropractic adjustment?

  • Decreases muscle tension that may pull your spine out of alignment
  • Retrains your muscle memory which increases the effectiveness of the adjustment
  • Alleviates nerve constriction due to muscle tension
  • Helps prevent future injuries and pain
  • Relieves muscle spasm, tension and stress
