Combining both techniques can speed up recovery time for muscle soreness or other medical problems.

How Does Chiropractic Massage Therapy Work?

Chiropractic massage therapy involves the use of traditional massage techniques with chiropractic manipulation. The idea behind using them together is to improve the health of the spine, the body, and the nervous system.

Chiropractic adjustments target firmer body parts like your bones and joints. Adding in massage allows your therapist to focus on the tissues and muscles. Using them together provides full-body health benefits beyond what you could get by utilizing each technique alone.

The methods used during massage therapy can vary. Your therapist may alternate between using light gliding strokes to heavier pressure to apply more friction. Using the movements together helps elongate muscles and fibrous tissue, which may be affected by:

  • Bad posture
  • Overuse
  • Injury
  • Illness
  • Sedentary lifestyle

What Can You Treat With Chiropractic Massage Therapy?

Chiropractic massage improves blood flow around your body while relaxing the tissues. In addition, you can see relief from swelling caused by various health conditions.

Back Issues

Applying chiropractic massage o the back can improve blood flow by your spine. Many people experience back pain because of a misaligned vertebra or damaged muscle fiber. Chiropractic massage can provide relief to individuals whose posture is already affected by their discomfort. After applying the chiropractic adjustment, massage can help with healing and tension reduction.

Joint Pain

Many adults dealing with sports injuries have lingering pain in their joints. Applying chiropractic massage to an affected body area helps put the joint back into its proper position for better support. In addition, the massage improves swelling in the muscle tissue and helps with pain relief.

Headaches

Tight muscles in your back and along your spine can lead to headaches. In addition, restricted blood flow can cause people to experience severe pain. After adjusting the neck and back, applying a massage can loosen up the muscles, which helps provide relief from the headache.
