You probably understand how relaxing a massage can be. Massage therapy has long been used to promote health and well-being within the medical community. At Lone Tree Chiropractic, we are proud to provide our patients with massage therapy and other forms of natural treatment.
Massage therapy has multiple benefits, including enhancing your overall health. By the manipulation of the soft tissue, you can receive relief from pain caused by certain conditions and injuries. Research has found that massage therapy is especially helpful for lower back pain and pain in the neck and shoulders. Patients may also experience relief from headaches through massage therapy. Also, massaging the tissue encourages blood flow, which can support the healing process.
Massage therapy is an umbrella that includes various techniques that are inspired by both Western and Eastern schools of massage. You might be familiar with Swedish massage, also known as classical massage, or Shiatsu. However, there are other methods of massage available.
Massage therapy carries a low risk. However, there is the possibility of an injury to a nerve or bone or a blood clot. This is more likely with vigorous massage and patients such as the elderly who are more prone to injuries. A vigorous deep tissue massage can occasionally cause soreness without creating long-term damage.
Many providers are licensed to practice massage therapy in their state. The National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork also provides certification to practitioners. A chiropractor, massage therapist, or physical therapist may be able to provide this service. Some professionals offer multiple services or types of massage therapy.
