The Benefits of Massage Therapy Combined With Chiropractic Care
When you visit a chiropractor for chronic pain or injury rehabilitation, they will design a personalized treatment program. They may combine multiple chiropractic therapies that work in conjunction with each other to accelerate healing, relieve pain, and improve function and mobility. At Venice Spine & Disc, Dr. Michael Grocholski recommends combining chiropractic care with massage therapy in Venice, FL, to improve healing and restore health and quality of life. Here is a look at the biggest benefits of combining chiropractic care with massage therapy.
Reduced Reliance on Pain Medication
Prescription pain medication may offer temporary pain relief, but over time, your dependance on it will increase. You will need to take higher and higher doses to find relief, and you may experience side effects or complications that affect your health or quality of life. Combining chiropractic care and massage therapy can offer drug-free pain relief and reduce your reliance on prescription pain medication. Both chiropractic care and massage therapy can relieve muscle tension, inflammation, poor posture, joint misalignments, swelling, and spinal imbalances that are causing pain.
Accelerated Healing
By combining massage therapy and chiropractic care, we can accelerate your healing from an injury. Chiropractic care can realign the spine and correct imbalances that could be causing pain and discomfort. Chiropractic adjustments can relieve pressure on the nerves, muscles, and soft tissues around the spine and make it easier to return to your normal routine. Massage therapy can improve blood flow to injured areas and jump start the body’s natural healing processes.
Improve Range of Motion and Mobility
When you get a massage before you undergo a chiropractic adjustment, it will relax your muscles and prepare your body for chiropractic care. This will make your chiropractic adjustment more effective. When you get a massage after a chiropractic adjustment, you are less likely to experience pain, stiffness, or soreness. Your body will be better adapted to accepting the new alignment, and your range of motion and mobility will be improved.
