4 Great Reasons to Try Massage Therapy

Atlantic Chiropractic and Rehabilitation in VA offers both chiropractic care and massage treatments. Individuals who receive the services of both our chiropractor and a masseuse experience less pain and have a better overall sense of well-being, which is why we recommend our Chesapeake patients take advantage of both services. 

Why Try Massage Therapy at Our Clinic?

1. Comprehensive Care

Receiving chiropractic care and massage therapy in tandem can help lower body, muscle and nerve pain and improve blood flow to injured areas of the body. A licensed chiropractor can recommend strengthening exercises for injured body parts and realign the body through spinal adjustments.

A qualified masseuse can then massage away muscle knots and tension and help increase blood flow. Together, these services improve healing times and reduce the likelihood of reinjury.

2. Decrease Pain

Most individuals seek out the services of a chiropractor and/or masseuse in an effort to relieve frequent back pain and severe headaches. Undergoing a massage relaxes the muscles, body and mind, and we offer custom services. Special attention can be given to problem areas, including the lower back, neck and shoulders.

3. Lower Stress And Blood Pressure

Massage has been proven to lower blood pressure and reduce stress. During the massage, the you will go into a relaxed state, which lowers your pulse and subsequently lowers blood pressure. People who receive regular massages average lower blood pressures and exhibit less symptoms of stress, including headaches, upset stomachs and random aches and pains.

4. Message Treatments And Mood Regulation

Massage has been shown to reduce the symptoms of both depression and anxiety. Receiving a massage gives individuals time to reflect on their day or week and have their stress and tension kneaded away. This combination allows you to center yourself and put yourself first, which helps to improve overall mood.

Combining massage therapy with the services of a chiropractor at Atlantic Chiropractic and Rehabilitation can speed healing and increase flexibility and range of motion.
