Massage Therapy

Most people correlate “I have a lot of muscle tension.” with “I just need a massage.” However, if getting a massage does not provide the relief you are looking for, you need to start looking at the root cause of your muscle spasms and soreness. 

Root causes could include a twisted ankle or a pelvis out of alignment, negatively affecting your balance. Poor nutrition, anxiety, lack of sleep, and headaches can also trigger intense muscle tension.

Massage Therapy

Luckily, massage therapy is often used in coordination with chiropractic care to help muscles, ligaments, and tendons heal quickly and effectively. For example, after an adjustment realigns the spine or other joints, a massage helps to relax the muscles around those segments to allow the benefits of the adjustment to last longer. 

For maximum relief, the Action Chiropractic team starts with a skeletal analysis before moving on to a chemical and nutritional evaluation. After that, our massage therapy team can review our initial analysis and recommend massage and muscular therapy tailored specifically to each patient and their specific needs.

Massage therapy is also used to help relieve pain associated with the following conditions:
