Chiropractic Care and Massage Therapy: 2 in 1 Treatment

Chiropractic care is a safe and effective drug-free natural therapy technique tailored to target and treat the root and cause of pain and discomfort rather than simply treating symptoms. The same can be said of massage therapy. It is easy to see how each can complement the other, creating a synergy that results in a faster recovery time and when used as maintenance care, the combination of the two can help you reach your goal of optimum wellness.

Massage helps Chiropractic Care and Vice Versa

Massage and chiropractic can work hand in hand. A session of massage therapy can prolong the effects of a chiropractic adjustment by releasing muscle tension that otherwise might have pulled a joint back out of alignment. Massage can also relieve the immediate temporary discomfort that sometimes comes after a joint has been realigned. On the other hand, when delivered first, massage can prepare patients for chiropractic adjustments by relaxing their soft tissues and muscles, thus alleviating any anxiety they may have.

While chiropractic and massage therapy, when administered separately, benefit our patients with the pain relief and alleviation they seek. We find that when used in conjunction, patients receive a significantly longer-lasting result. Massage therapy, when paired with spinal manipulation, spinal decompression, or chiropractic adjustments offers a variety of positive benefits in treating painful issues such as:

• migraine headaches

• back pain and neck pain

• tendonitis

• ligament sprains

• whiplash

• fibromyalgia

• herniated discs

• osteoarthritis

• spinal stenosis

• shin splints

• sciatica

• muscle spasms

By offering both chiropractic care and massage therapy in one location, our Sewell practice offers you not only convenience but allows our chiropractor and massage therapist to discuss your condition and symptoms. In this way they can formulate the best approach, with our chiropractor focusing on structural misalignments and our massage therapist targeting your muscles and soft tissues.

We are in the Washington Township area and serve Sewell and Glassboro, Turnersville, Williamstown, and Blackwood. Call us today for more information at 856-306-8176.
